Brad is humbled to be back treading the boards at Destination Dinner Stage!

Tonight, Brad tackles perhaps his toughest role yet: playing the father of a teenager. Brad would like to thank the whole crew at the theatre for all their hard work. Also, his family who is ever supportive of his ventures, his lovely wife Jeny for fostering his love of virtuous mischief and his dogs Asuka, Midna, and cat Loki for surviving living with an actor. Anything else, you know where to find me!
