	On screen and stage, there's a star in there - Arts - www.smh.com.au
		Quast tells this story partly to illustrate how weird and wonderful his career has been and how, as an actor, he can defy expectation by being a lovable rogue one moment, a despised politician the next.
		Quast is regarded as a director's actor and he insists his time as a presenter on Play School enabled him to become a truthful, communicative and flexible performer.
		Quast thrives on the energy and pressure of working in the theatre but says he's never been inclined to direct, except when he detects a lack of vision.

	Philip Quast's Quantum Leap Forward (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Philip Quast, who leapt to stardom at the Australian premiere of Les Miserables and was whisked off to the London show, has won the lead in Sunday in the Park with George at the National.
		When Philip Quast took a phone call last week in his dressing room at London's Palace Theatre, where he is starring in Les Miserables, and heard "It's Stephen Sondheim here, Philip", he promptly dropped the phone.
		Quast, who comes from Tamworth, NSW, where his parents have a turkey farm, knows he is taking a hop, step and a long jump into the big time; he is very apprehensive about what sort of landing he will make.

	There's a star in there - theage.com.au
		Quast, 45, is only the third male singer to answer the summons, after Clive Rowe and Michael Ball.
		Quast's anonymity in England perhaps arises from the fact that, apart from Les Miserables 12 years ago, he has not been in a long-running hit (he was also the lead in the Royal Skakespeare Company's quaintly dark The Secret Garden).
		Quast is better known as a straight actor in his native Australia, where he occasionally returns to work in theatre, film and even sitcom.

	Telegraph \| Arts \| Stage star throws himself into a new role
		He bounds on to the stage, in this, his first foray into cabaret, and during the course of the evening takes his shoes off, jumps in the air, sits on a chair then stands on it and later lifts it and whirls it above his head.
		Quast has looked beyond his own past repertory, and includes old songs by Weill, Rodgers and Schwarz, as well as new ones, some of them composed by his pianist and musical director, the lithe and brilliant Jason Robert Brown.
		Quast's voice is smooth and clear, in both the baritone and tenor registers.

		Philip Quast, the sole male in the quartet of singers who make up this year's Divas at the Donmar series, opened Aug. 20.
		Whether this was a reflection of Quast's personal popularity or a sign of the cumulative effect of a very well-reviewed and enjoyable season of Divas is unclear, but this third hit in a row suggests that cabaret is a popular art form.

		I, like many people first heard Philip Quast on the live cast recording of Les Mis, though I didn't actually get to put a face to the voice until the 10th anniversary concert of Les Mis when he reprised his role of Javert.
		This is Philip's first solo album, which is amazing considering the large number of musicals that Philip has acted in and has recorded cast albums for.I was there the evening that the Live at the Donmar album was recorded.
		For those who already know of Philip's considerable talent, both for acting and for music, this, surprisingly Philip's first solo album, is definitely one to have, for those who as yet are not so familiar with his work, this will be a wonderful introduction to this amazing man.

		I should warn everyone that there is no guarantee that Philip will come with the play - or even that the play will come at all at this stage.
		After all, if Philip is contracted to the RSC for the London season of Secret Garden and that happens to be on in March, then I guess he won't be going to New York.
		Philip has worked extensively in both musical and classical theare, winning two Best Actor in a Musical Olivier Awards for 'Sunday in the Park with George' (RNT) and 'The Fix' (Donmar).

		She goes to Reed's older, and smarter brother, Grahame (Philip Quast), to enlist his help in the matter.
		Grahame, a stutterer and on crutches, crippled by the polio he contracted as a child, questions Cal's competency to hold elected office, as well as questioning his paternity...reminding Violet of the affair she had with Bobby "Cracker" Barrel (Bogdan Kominowski), a redneck who got the electric chair.
		And the music, a definite rock and roll feel throughout, but much more interesting than pure and simple pop, it is also influenced by other styles...including gospel, country and the more traditional "showtune".
