Dan welcomes to the podcast one of the first performers currently in Miss Saigon, David Duketis! David is an extraordinary actor, not to mention singer and this was such a fun chat.
We chat about touring internationally with Miss Saigon, adapting to life on tour, missing home, settling into new cities & countries, being in his longest running contract, the audience reactions to the show in Asia, not knowing much about Miss Saigon before getting the show, taking a step back to prepare for what's next, quoting movies, having fallbacks if he wasn't performing, striving for your dream, hustling & keeping the creative flow going, shifting your thinking, first job working on Phantom of the Opera on Sydney Harbour, contending with the elements on Sydney Harbour, covering at a moment's notice in Joseph and Technicolor Dreamcoat, importance of preparation, maintaining the discipline to stay fit & healthy during a show's run, getting sick in Taiwan, a collision with Nigel Huckle on stage, and so much more!
