According to its-behind-you.com, Daniel is going to be doing panto in Guildford over the christmas period.  Not sure this is the greatest news - as it effectively means that he can't do any west end work before then - and certainly not a role in any new production.  Doesn't seem to be the best way to capitalise on the TV programme.

Perhaps his casting in this Guildford Panto was arranged before the TV Joseph series.

Christmas is a long way ahead - maybe the Guildford Panto will fit in AFTER some other role (not yet announced).

Digital Spy interview published May22, includes:

I have already been offered a job! But I can't tell you what it is."

Not even a hint?
"I can't tell you, but it's a new musical coming later this year and I've already been offered it. Nothing's definite though. I haven't said a definite yes, but they've shown interest and I am very interested."

Daniel Trained at Guildford (GSA).

Also I read somewhere that he's FROM Guildford -
so if that's true, perhaps he has family to spend Christmas with.

Daniel's done several Pantos before, and played leads in at least 2 of them.

Personally (having met Daniel twice, briefly) I think Panto might suit him - and I think he might enjoy it.

(Among other types of show, of course!)

Daniel should be kept away from all sharp objects and the medicine cabinet, one minute you think you may get the part of joseph , the next your in panto.

I've seen that Daniel has signed with Gavin Barker - John Barrowman's agent, I'm sure that an agent like that would have got him a betterment clause in case a great job in the west end comes up, give the boy a chance...

This is true, Daniel will be in Guildford panto.It's a fairly short run and will fit in nicely with his future West End arrangements.

Daniel could even make reading the telephone directory interesting.

[theatrefan]

Well why didn't he make the songs given to him on Any Dream interesting????

[robsangel]

For all the rest of us (unlike Theatrefan) who do find Daniel interesting I've just heard from his website that he will be appearing as Anthony Hope in the RFH concert production of Sweeney Todd.

Well done Daniel.  

[theatrefan]

I actually like Daniel, and couldn't understand why he didn't come over well on ADWD! That was the  reason for my post - and the fact that no-one could literally make the phone directory interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing Daniel in Sweeney Todd - it's a great cast.

[Tintin]

Metaphorically speaking, theatrefan.

I am very pleased that Daniel will be playing the part of Anthony. He really deserves a break like that and he should be great in the role.
