Dish: Jade Esteban Estrada

See Jade Esteban Estrada's musical about gay history at Hal & Mal's Wednesday, March 16, at 8 p.m. Sponsored by the Jackson Free Press.

Jade Esteban Estrada is a busy guy. Born in San Antonio, Texas, to a U.S. Army officer and a stage actress, Estrada won a scholarship to the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York. Estrada studied dance, alongside Jennifer Lopez, under Slam, the lead dancer from Madonna’s Blonde Ambition Tour, among other notable teachers of the era. His music can be heard on the Golden Globe- and Emmy award-winning police drama “The Shield.” In fact, when I interviewed him, he was in between takes, shooting a remake of “The Producers” in California.
