Nick Jonas
Musician Nick Jonas may be best known as a 17-year-old heartthrob appearing in the sensational boy band, The Jonas Brothers, with siblings Kevin and Joe. Nick, however, originally found his passion for performing in the world of theatre.
Growing up in suburban New Jersey, Nick Jonas would typically attend New York City casting calls and other auditions at a very young age. His big break, into the business, came as Little Jake in the 1999 Broadway revival of ANNIE GET YOUR GUN. Shortly thereafter Nick was cast in the long-running Broadway production of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST as Chip. In 2003, Mr. Jonas landed the role of Gavroche (the young street urchin) in the original Broadway production of LES MISERABLES.
While Nick has enjoyed a burgeoning Disney career, in music and television, it is both the platform of musical theatre and his experience in LES MISERABLES that Nick Jonas credits for his artistic success: "Broadway was where I first started finding my voice as an artist and finding my feet as an actor," said Jonas. Nearly seven years later, Mr. Jonas is rediscovering his passion for drama as he assumes the role of Marius in the West End run of LES MISERABLES at the Queens Theatre in London. Jonas was welcomed with positive reviews from fans, Cameron Mackintosh (Producer), and local critics!
Nick Jonas can be seen at London's Queens Theatre through July 24. He can also be seen in the sequel to Disney's Camp Rock, Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam, scheduled to premiere in September on the Disney Channel.
