Jeff Daniels had just wrapped a long basketball practice when his high school’s theater director pulled him into the auditorium to audition for a production of the musical South Pacific. The actor grew up in such a small town that the director would try to get her hands on anyone who could carry a tune just to fill the ranks of the cast.
“I went in, and I got up and I auditioned,” Daniels recalls in the latest installment of Rolling Stone’s “The First Time.” “I was just off to the side doing this Jim Carrey-esque dance at the age of 16 and she cracked up and had me do it three more times and then put me in the show. That was the first audition — that one went well.”
