Join us on a trip across the pond with our first guest from Jersey BOYS UK!
Meet Jacob McIntosh who plays Barry Belson at the Trafalgar Theatre.
Jacob is no stranger to jukebox musicals and iconic red costumes — He was a swing in the UK tours of BEAUTIFUL: THE CAROLE KING MUSICAL and KINKY BOOTS.
He has an effortless stage presence and can belt like nobody’s business. Did you know that Barry Belson does the famous “Oh, What a Night” riff not once but TWICE in the West End production?
Last October, Jacob made history as one of the few Black actors to play Bob Crewe onstage in JERSEY BOYS UK. Tommie Earl Jenkins also covered Bob Crewe in JERSEY BOYS UK from 2010-2013.
In this episode, you’ll learn about:
-The Jersey Boys UK Barry Belson riff addition
-The Jersey Boys UK definition of “Superswing,” “High Swing” and “Low Swing”
-How swings are perceived in the West End
-His view on diversity in West End casting
A' Salud ♥️🍷
