Heisman Trophy winner Eddie George said performing in eight shows a week as shark lawyer Billy Flynn in the musical tour Chicago can be as grueling as his professional football career was, but it’s worth it.
“It feels like training camp, like the old days when we had two-a-days,’’ said George, speaking by phone from the tour in Milwaukee of his eight-show week.
“It’s endless. You really have to love doing the work in order to enjoy it and feel like you’re successful and getting all that you can out of it.”
George, who performs in the Chicago national tour in select cities, will make his star turn in Akron on Tuesday and Wednesday at E.
