Actorcast

I was so excited to chat with Daniel Durston for episode 065 of Actorcast! We talk about his upcoming musical, 1996, which uses songs by Blink182 to tell a story rooted from Daniel's life experience. We talk about his background as a performer and musician, the years he has spent developing the show, and what's coming up around the pike. Daniel also shares stories about his encounters with both Tom DeLonge and Travis Barker. You won't want to miss this episode. And be sure to tune in until the end to hear Daniel's rendition of "Home is Such A Lonely Place" by Blink182.
