Jonathan Taylor
Personal Biography:
Born in Israel of South African parents, Jonathan came to the Rainbow nation at age 2 when the colours were still not allowed on the same flag. Educated at Northview High School and then Johannesburg College of Education, he was supposed to be a teacher but the performing bug had already hit hard. While still a teenager, he had tasted success with The Jugless Jug Band and when he was offered a role in the original touring production of Joseph, he jumped at it. Early musicals included Grease, The Me Nobody Knows, while in later years he appeared in such blockbusters as March of the Falsettoes(Vita nomination, Best Supporting Actor), Joburg Follies, Buddy and toured South Africa and the Far East with Phantom of the Opera, for which he was again nominated for a Naledi award as Best Supporting Actor.
