Y2J IS TCA!!!!!

Its pretty amazing eh, the place I work at will be hosting Y2J in a play, it should be amazing. It is also fairly nice to see TCA being mentioned on wwe.com.

Here is the exact article from wwe.com, come out and check out Y2J in "Opening Night" as for 4 nights Y2J is TCA!!!

Tonight, the audience will file into the Toronto Centre for the Arts. A hush will fall over the crowd as the lights dim. The curtain will rise and former WWE Superstar Chris Jericho will make his theatre debut. Several months of training, rehearsal and promotion for the play have led to this moment. Does Y2J have butterflies in his stomach or is this just another chapter for “the larger than life superstar?” WWE.com caught up with him to find out.

“I’m really excited to see what people think of it and to get out there and just enjoy myself,” said Jericho. “It’s a funny play and a great role.”

In the play Opening Night, Jericho plays Jack Tisdale, a middle-aged varnish salesman who takes his wife to the opening night of a play for their 25th wedding anniversary. She’s ecstatic, but he would rather be home watching the World Series. Will the role be too much of a departure for fans loyal to “the sexy beast”? Jericho doesn’t think so.

“It’s a completely different role, but there will still be elements of Chris Jericho in there, just like there are elements of any actor (in their characters),” he said. “Any role that Johnny Depp plays has elements of Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt or Robert De Niro or Screech.”
Jericho compares himself to some pretty big names, but has worked hard to develop his acting skills.
