Actor Ethan Le Phong, who regularly performs on both sides of the Atlantic,is currently in rehearsals for the Menier Chocolate Factory's upcoming revival of Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman's 1976 Tony-nominated musical Pacific Overtures.
Directed by Matthew White, the co-production with Umeda Arts Theater will begin previews at the London venue November 25 prior to an official opening December 4. Le Phong plays American Admiral/Fisherman and covers the role of Kayama in a cast that also includes Jon Chew as the Reciter, Kanako Nakano as Tamate, Saori Oda as Shogun/Madam, Takuro Ohno as Kayama, and Joaquin Pedro Valdes as Manjiro.
It's been a busy season for the actor, who also played Thuy in Sheffield Theatres' summer staging of Miss Saigon, the first regional non-replica production of Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg’s musical in the U.K. Reimagined by directors Robert Hastie and Anthony Lau, the limited engagement featured Joanna Ampil in the traditionally male role of The Engineer.

Recently, we had the chance to speak with Joaquin Pedro Valdes, who is taking on the role of John Manjiro in Pacific Overtures. We discussed how he first got started in musical theatre, what it has been like to be a part of such a unique Sonhdime work, and even how the themes of the show can be compared to sushi!
