#40 Jake Epstein – From Degrassi Kid to Broadway Star + More

I recently worked with Jake Epstein on Doc and was SO excited to finally meet the guy I’d been hearing so much about for years. Jake is a profoundly talented actor who began as a child star and quickly found himself as a regular on the iconic teen drama, Degrassi. Where his story becomes even more interesting is that he chose to leave that show and go to theatre school, beginning the steps of the journey that would lead him to starring on Broadway as “Spider Man” in Spider Man: Turn Off The Dark (one of the most technically ambitious Broadway shows in history). Jake is whip smart, funny, and profoundly brave in his willingness to follow the creative threads of his life. I’m a huge fan of this gent, I have a feeling you’ll love this episode, so dive on in.
