Moblees Show: Music Theatre

moblees show: The 25-year-old Oakville native studied music theatre at Sheridan college before launching into a career that includes musicals at Stratford, Shaw, the Grand Theatre as well as many smaller theatre companies, according to Rabble. His growing list of film and television credits include series lead on the Moblees children's show, a dancer on Degrassi Goes Hollywood, Frisah on Little Mosque on the Prairie and a feature part on Ghost Trackers. I recently a chance to talk with Matt about this ground-breaking play and his character. Flying home to Toronto after finishing a run at the Mayfield Theatre in Edmonton where he played Ike Turner in a review of Tina Turner and Aretha Franklin, Nethersole decided to read through a play that had been intentionally sent his way. These characters are not 'other' and they are not defined by being Muslim or queer. According to Nethersole, Reading a play for the first time can sometimes be a tedious task, but I devoured Acha Bacha in no time. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
