Backstage With Becca B. Ep. 118 with Jack Cahill-Lemme

On this episode I talked with Jack about the moment he knew he wanted to perform on stage and do theatre, the first show he saw was that made him realize theatre was what he wanted to do, finding regional theatre in Chicago to participate in and winning the 2016 Broadway in Chicago Illinois High School Musical Theatre Award for best actor which led to a Jimmy Awards Nomination, his most memorable moment getting to participate in the Jimmy Awards, his audition for the Moulin Rouge tour, finding out he’d be on the tour as a swing and understudying Christian PLUS The Duke on the tour, the rehearsal process for tour before hitting the road, his Christian debut, why fans should come see Moulin Rouge on tour, and MUCH MORE!
