I once sang Summer Nights, from Grease, at a bar in Melbourne with John Travolta, whos a good friend of mine. He looked cool singing the part of Danny – sitting in an armchair, smoking a cigar – while I got stuck playing Sandy. – Hugh Jackman
One afternoon when I was 9, my dad told me Id be skipping school the next day. Then we drove 12 hours from Melbourne to Sydney for the Centenary Test, a once-in-a-lifetime commemorative cricket match. It was great fun – especially for a kid who was a massive sports fan. – Hugh Jackman
Im doing a new musical on Broadway, which opens in October called The Boy from Oz, where I play Peter Allen. For those of you who dont know, he became first famous in America for marrying Liza Minelli. – Hugh Jackman
