Relocating to Darwin in 2015, He played the title role in Jesus Christ Superstar (2015), dual roles in For The Term of His Natural Life (2016) and the lead role of ‘Freddie’ in Chess (2017). During this time Shalom started to develop his love for directing: he was the Artistic Director for Darwin Chorale’s sold-out seasons of Beatles Cabaret(2016) and ABBA Cabaret (2017), which he also choreographed. In 2018 he wrote, directed, choreographed and had a cameo role in Voices of Remembrance: A Territory Story of War and Peace, a moving tribute to our ANZACs set in Darwin during WW1. The performance garnered a standing ovation lead by the military. In 2023 he will play the role of Che Guevara in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Evita. Shalom made his dramatic acting debut in the coveted role of John Hale in The Crucible in 2017, followed by Harold Gorringe in Peter Shaffer’s Black Comedy (2018). He developed his love for Shakespeare's as Feste in Twelfth Night (2020), Hortensio in Taming of the Shrew (2021) and as Puck and Theseus in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Shalom was an extra on Top End Wedding and had small roles in various short films, including Thomas Medina’s You Do You (2018), before playing the lead in The Japanese Slipper, written by award winning playwright, Sean Guy. Shalom featured in various TV ad campaigns during this time. After a Darwin Festival debut in Pathetic Fallacy(2018), Shalom premiered his autobiographical cabaret Purple Plastic Maori (2019) at Darwin Fringe Festival to a sell out season, winning People’s Choice Award and Best Producer. Purple Plastic Maori featured at Adelaide Fringe Festival 2020 and 2021 to rave reviews.
