We caught up with Daniel to learn more about him. Check out his 10 Fun Facts below:
Most people know I’m Italian and while working on my dual citizenship I found out that my dad became an American Citizen when he was 6yo and I am also part Chinese. So, no matter how you spin it I’m a noodle fan.
Another fun pasta fact My Uncle Luigi Franzese invented Penne ala Vodka. You can look it up. So, Olive Garden owes me Residuals.
My very first paid acting gig I was an actor/director in an all year long haunted house. Now here I am in Blood/Love an immersive vampire musical, so the circle is complete Moohoohahaha.
I probably go to at least one thrift store a day. I don’t buy something every day but that’s how you find the really weird stuff but visiting thrifts. I sometimes have a booth called Handsome Heavyweight I do at places like this all plus size flea called @ThickThrift LA
I’m allergic to cats. I think they are so cute but if you have one, you’re hanging at my place only.
Head inside to read the rest of the fun facts…
I store a lot of lyrics to random songs in my head by close friends are always floored by how many raps, musicals, commercial jingles, and rock songs are forever in my head.
My favorite things in the world are things that look like other things. Like a lighter that looks like a battery or a speaker that looks like a hamburger also mini things and giant things bring me joy.
I’ll do anything for my nieces and nephews. I’m the ultimate Guncle. During the pandemic my niece was failing in school so I homeschooled her through second grade and taught her to read. She is now an honor roll student.
I’m a serious SADE fan. All I want is a man, a meal and Sade music playing. Is that too much to ask?
My favorite vampire is the one from Sesame Street. You may have a different favorite but does he even Count?
Get tickets now for Blood/Love, playing in L.A. through November 2.
