Jerod Nace Nate Trenholme

Jerod Nace

Jerod is returning after a decade away from the theater but he’s pretty sure he remembers how to do it. No better way to dust off vocal chords than a Sondheim score as magnificent as Sweeney Todd and a singing role as fun and challenging as Pirelli. Olympia audiences last saw Jerod performing a Queen tribute with his band, Mercury Rising, for a sold-out show at the Washington Center in 2023. Mercury Rising will return to the Washington Center on March 29, 2025 for an encore performance. Gratitude to his children Dutch, Virginia, and Cohen for loving him unconditionally. www.mercuryrisingolympia.com
