Description

Dan is joined by two musical theatre superstars, Tana Laga'aia and returning guest Daniel Raso!


This episode was recorded when Tana and Daniel were both in Jesus Christ Superstar, and a few days before Daniel was about to start rehearsals for Beetlejuice.


We chat about the experience of working on Jesus Christ Superstar, the work of the ensemble, Michael Paynter, no substitute for hard work, knowing where to belong in the 'mob', being the fight captain, building up the cast camaraderie, trauma bonding, celebrating outgoing cast members, the team aspect of performing, positivity, diversifying your skillset, family advice, Spelling Bee, being relaxed, not comparing yourself, learning to trust yourself, dealing with mistakes, sharing stories, having awareness of the negative, the inner anxiety, always thinking you can do better, allowing for change, getting the gig on Beetlejuice, progressing through the auditioning process, and a whole lot more!
