Adam Garcia
Adam left university to take the role of Slide in the production of the musical Hot Shoe Shuffle, which toured Australia for two years before transferring to London, England. Adam stayed on in London to act in West End musicals.
Garcia played Doody in the West End's version of Grease in London. He also played another Travolta character, Tony Manero, in the stage version of Saturday Night Fever, which ran from 1998 to 1999 in London. Garcia reached #15 in the UK singles chart in 1998, with his cover version of the Bee Gees song "Night Fever", taken from Saturday Night Fever. In 2000 Adam Garcia played Sean in Bootmen, a movie based on the Tapdogs story.
He appeared as government official Alex Klein in the 2005 Christmas special of the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. According to the audio commentary podcast for the episode offered for free on the bbc.co.uk website following its transmission, Garcia accepted the relatively minor role as he is a science fiction fan.
Garcia has been nominated for multiple awards during his acting career. His transition into a film actor began in 1997, when he played Jones in Wilde, a movie about the life of writer Oscar Wilde. Despite the fact that he has starred in such movies as Coyote Ugly and others, it was not until 2004, when he participated as rock star Stu Wolf in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen that he gained mainstream fame as an actor.
Garcia worked with Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth to help create the role of Fiyero in the 2002 Wicked workshops, prior to Original Broadway Cast member Norbert Leo Butz working on the role. In September 2006, Garcia began playing Fiyero in the London production of the Stephen Schwartz musical Wicked alongside Idina Menzel, Helen Dallimore and later, Kerry Ellis. He gave his final performance as Fiyero on July 14, 2007.
In the latter part of 2008, Adam appears in two ITV dramas, Britannia High in which he plays the dance teacher, and Mr Eleven, a two-part comedy/drama alongside Michelle Ryan and Sean Maguire. He is currently working on an indie film A Woman Called Job.
