Daniel tiger's neighborhood cast Continue More than 10 years ago, I spoke with Kevin Morrison, Chief Operating Officer of Fred Rogers Prod. at the time, about the continuation of Fred Rogers' legacy. As many of you know, Daniel Tiger's neighborhood stems from this conversation. Today the show is shared by millions of children around the world. I had a conversation in 2013 with Jake Beale, who played Daniel's original voice in the Daniel Tiger area (now Keegan Headley). Part of what makes the show so rich and the heart felt is the voices that bring our character to life in sharing Fred's message. Here's one of those amazing voices from the archives. I hope you enjoy it! Hey, Jake. You play a preschool tiger named Daniel, but how old are you. Really? I'm 11. And you have a teensy bit of accent, where do you come from? I'm from Toronto, Canada. How do you look like Daniel Tiger? Are your personalities similar? I like to learn about new things and teach other new things. We're both funny, and we both love to sing. I love singing in the shower and annoying my two older sisters. If you had to choose one favorite episode, what would it be? Good morning, Daniel. I love that one too. And not just because I wrote it! And you sing so beautifully in this episode! If Daniel Tiger can do something or go somewhere in the next episode, what would you like it to be? Jamaica! Because I love swimming and I love the beach. What's your favorite book? The Hunger Games. I read them. Twice. When you're not in the recording studio, what's your favorite pastime? Hockey. Hockey. Hockey. And tennis. What was the funniest moment for you while working on the show? I once burped in a recording studio. Jake has been behaving since he was four. His adorable raucous voice has helped him land roles in a number of cartoons and now spends most of his acting time in voice studios. Jake works very hard to balance his time on stage with his schoolwork and other passions. When he's not in the studio or at school you may find him playing hockey, spending time with friends and family, or relaxing in camp for the night.

Two 11-minute segments involve a common social and emotional theme such as frustration and sadness, anger and gratitude.
