I'm not sure that everybody in the box office in Edinburgh knew who he was, but there was a sudden silence as everybody stopped to look when he came in. His hair was very untidy with his waves falling all over and he was wearing those camouflage trousers which are not at all flattering.

 

An aura, charisma..............It was the same with Natasha that day. The old woman beside me 'knew' that Natasha had to be somebody, despite the fact she was dressed down and just looked like a Mum with her son.

In the theatre, people who had no idea who he was, were blown away by him. It wasn't the name, it was the personality on the stage. Mind you, in 'Guys and Dolls' Shaun impressed me in a similar way.

I'd go back to see Shaun Williamson any time. I'd even travel to see Shaun.

 

I think it's a shame he won'tconsider working in the US. Extras has been very popular over there. I suppose he must know his own mind and prefer "poor but happy".

Good. - that's how I would describe him. I went to see 'Guys and Dolls' the first time to see Patrick Swazey but, good as he was, I thought Shaun was even better.

Did Patrick Swazey start off in theatre/musicals?

 

I first remember him in the TV series North and South which was a straight dramatic role.

I know he did theatre early in his career but I don't know the order it came in.

He was a Disney dancer, then did Grease on Broadway, then into films.

Thanks, BT

I really liked Patrick in North and South and then again in Ghost.

 

He really looked as if he'd lost his good looks in the pictures I saw from London.

That's because it's a pic. You need his vitality in a moving picture to appreciate him. Darius looks better in the flesh as well.
