The Teen Years, Musical Theatre and Europe

As he approached his high school years, Eduardo joined the Mexican Dance Theatre directed by Miguel Delgado. While with the MDT, Eduardo made his professional dancing debut in the film “Zoot Suit”. While learning the art of the “Puchucos”, Flamenco, the dances of Jalisco, Vercruz and of the Aztecs, he clearly discovered he had a talent for dancing. He would then bring his dancing experience back to his high school as he ended up starring in most of his high school musicals.

Already being a musician and a dancer, singing came naturally for Eduardo and before long the song and dance group, The Young Americans, recruited him. He toured the country performing with the likes of Donny and Marie and Liberace. While a senior in high school, an audition for a job in the south of France would change his plans significantly. Eduardo was given permission to graduate high school early and begin his studies at UCLA late when he accepted his first professional stage experience and traveled to Europe to work at The Palm Beach Club in Cannes, France.
