rave on
the buddy holly story
Jeremy was the original Australian star of Buddy – The Buddy Holly Story, a musical that swept the country, commanding sell-out shows for years right across Australia and New Zealand. He played to rave reviews for over 700 performances in the title role before moving on to lead roles in other hit musicals such as Hello Dolly, High Society, Sweet Charity, South Pacific, as well as the Australian juggernaut, Priscilla Queen of the Desert – The Musical. He even played John Lennon in John Waters’, Looking Through a Glass Onion.
He is also well known in Australia for his work on award-winning television series such as Wentworth, The Dr Black Mysteries, Winners & Losers, Neighbours, and Jack Irish. His film work includes recent Australian films, Relic and 13 Summers.
He is thrilled to bring his own tribute to one of his greatest idols to the stage and to share the brilliance of Buddy Holly with a whole new audience.
