Preview of Aussie Theatre’s Interview with JB Austrailia’s Bob Crewe, Daniel Scott
June 15th, 2011Benjamin Neutze has a terrific interview with Daniel Scott, who currently plays Bob Crewe in JERSEY BOYS Australia. Here’s a preview:
When I ask Daniel Scott what makes Jersey Boys different to the other shows he’s worked on, he says one thing – “It’s a real blokes’ show.â€â€œUsually when you’re on a stage and looking out into the audience you can spot those real blokey men because it’s written all over their face that they don’t want to be there,†he says.
But the situation couldn’t be more different in Jersey Boys. “It’s the real men who are getting into this show,†Scott says. “They’d usually be out watching football, but they often have tears in their eyes by the end. It’s quite extraordinary.â€
“You can categorise the show as a juke-box musical, but the script is just so and so well thought through. The writers really just took their time thinking about how they would tell this story, and it really shows. The whole show is very fluid.â€
