Having played Frankie Valli in Jersey Boys for a record eight years and more than 2,000 shows, Broadway star Joseph Leo Bwarie amazingly said he never got tired of playing the legendary singer and performing his iconic songs. With this impressive stamina in mind, the guys put him through the Hollywood Uncorked ringer, forcing him to drink three wines from Sicily and to tell numerous stories from his long career in movies, recording, and theater. As a result, Joseph describes his first TV role on Highway to Heaven at age 9, his Jersey Boys audition in front of Frankie Valli himself, as well as this week’s two-show “My Funny Valentine” stint singing standards at the Garry Marshall Theater.
