Brady has been working with the Renaissance players for 10 years now! He has experienced a great deal in that time, both inside the group, and through his own personal life. Although outside of the spotlight he is an introverted wall flower, when on the stage, a completely different person takes over! A character actor, that takes on any role (or roles) that may be given him! He strives to make every show he’s apart of special, working with his fellow cast and crew, and giving his characters a particular element of memorability to the audience. He loves to exercise his knowledge of the performing arts, and sharing an abundance of passion for it as well! Brady is very proud of the Renaissance Players, and the opportunity he has to be one himself. He always strives to be a champion for our team wherever he goes!
