Jim has spent the past 40 years as an actor, singer, comedian, tap dancer, and musician on Broadway. He is a master of craft and the kind of performer we all strive to be. As someone who has worked with Jim, I can tell you that he is a team player and attacks every role no matter how big or small with integrity and confidence, one that comes from his many decades in the biz. Jim loves to do the work. He loves to dive into the material, discover what makes a character tick, and how to make each show 8x a week as fresh and organic as he can. On Broadway, Jim has appeared in the OBC cast of Merrily We Roll Along, 42nd Street, revivals of Sweeney Todd, The Music Man, The Mystery of Edwin Drood, On the 20th Century, She Loves Me and Sunset Boulevard. He has also appeared Off-Broadway in: And the World Goes ‘Round, Scrambled Feet and Closer Than Ever. On PBS, he’s been seen in: Follies: In Concert, Crazy For You, Sondheim! The Birthday Concert and Company. With his brother, Bob Walton, he wrote book, music and lyrics for Mid-life! (The Crisis Musical) and Mid-life 2! (#WhatDidIComeInHereFor?) both licensed through R&H Theatricals. For more information, visit the website: www.midlifethecrisismusical.com. Jim is also featured in a documentary about his Merrily We Roll Along experience, Best Worst Thing That Ever Could Have Happened, available on Netflix. He is presently in Come From Away on Broadway at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre where he plays Nick/Doug & Others. 

Somehow, just when you think you've seen it all from Jim Walton, he shows up stronger than he did before.

We spoke about the personal and creative discoveries during our college experiences, the differences between Broadway then and now, understudying and replacing, and commercial theater. I loved every single second of our conversation and I am so excited to share it with you.

This is Jim Walton.
