The Inspiring Life of Patrick Swayze
Broadway Debut
Being part of Disney on Parade gave Swayze the stepping stone he needed to get to bigger opportunities. After he was done with the show, Swayze got a break on Broadway, where he became the replacement for the actor playing Danny Zuko in the musical play Grease. The movie version of the musical had actor John Travolta’s most talked-about role that catapulted him to stardom. Being on Broadway was a big break for performers like Swayze, especially when his years of training had him ready to entertain the audiences. When an actor, dancer, or singer makes it on Broadway, it is considered a huge achievement.
