Talk about a dream role! This opportunity came completely out of nowhere and changed my life! The audition process was rigorous and took the most amount of preparation I have ever done, but it was a ton of fun. Once I heard I got the role, the real work began. Not only did I have the physical demands of moving and climbing around like Gollum, but this was also a musical. There was dancing, singing (yes in his voice!) and puppetry and several other characters that I played during this epic tale. Not only did we get to premier this in the U.S., specifically, Chicago, but we also got to take it to Middle Earth! We took this show to Aukland, New Zealand for 4 weeks. Such an amazing country and we did it all. Visited Hobbiton, climbed Mt. Doom, went to Weta Workshop and all that we could fit in between. Enjoy the journey below!
