Overview
- During an appearance on Live With Kelly & Mark to promote his role in Moulin Rouge!, Diggs said his 15-year-old son Walker dislikes musical theater unless he’s onstage.
- Diggs noted that Walker has natural performance ability but prefers to use it on the basketball court.
- Walker attended Diggs’s debut as the Duke of Monroth in Broadway’s Moulin Rouge! and told his father he “dug” the production.
- Diggs began his run at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre on July 22 and will perform through September 28.
- Walker’s selective theater outings contrast with the Broadway legacies of his parents, who met in Rent and have headlined hits like Wicked and Redwood.
