This week on Stagestruck, we sit down with the man, the myth, the Messiah… Joe Medlock! Best known to us as our very own Jesus Christ, Joe lifts the curtain on the trials, tribulations of playing one of theatre’s most iconic roles.

But there’s more to Joe than sandals and high notes — we chat about his past roles, from the fabulous Angel in Rent to the revolutionary Che in Evita. Oh, and did we mention he once swapped the stage for the classroom, living in Sweden as an English teacher? The man contains multitudes.

It’s a fun, honest, and gloriously theatrical catch-up with a performer who’s been there, done that, and probably got the crucifix-shaped bruises to prove it.
