Taylor Hicks is living the dream. So is Dominic Fortuna who plays Vince Fontaine in “Grease.”
Dominic answered questions for TTHC about his career, living the dream, and Taylor Hicks.
The Michigan native who also played along side Taylor in “Grease” on Broadway, was asked what would be his “dream role” in theatre.
“This might sound funny, but it really is Vince Fontaine! And doing the warm-up and everything. I can't imagine anything fitting me so well! I'm living the dream! :)”
Dominic is the welcoming face and voice of “Grease” as the charismatic DJ who warms up the theatre crowds and then steps into the role of DJ for the Rydell High School prom. With a strong, dramatic voice mimicking the recording artists of the era, he brightens up the theatre before the lights go down. You would swear you were in the back seat listening to the Top Twenty! Even his instructions to turn off all listening devices are entertaining!
Dominic is friendly and personable off stage, and is so much the character that he plays, it is hard not to call him “Vince.” He attended Taylor’s show at Roxy’s and told fans afterwards that it was “great.”
