I remember seeing and hearing Brad as a piano whiz as early as the second grade, as we were elementary-school classmates and friends growing up in small-town Connecticut. We had a great time catching up on how his career went from the Berkshire Theatre Festival to ad agency music producing, working in piano bars both as a soloist and as a dueling pianist — eventually owning his own business, The Flying Ivories . His other staged works and collaborations include Click, Clack, Moo, We The People: America Rocks!, the Emmy-winning PBS series, Peg + Cat, and he wrote the music for Dog Man: The Musical, which is currently on tour across North America. We spoke about all of that, plus the work he’s currently engaged in adapting the film Bread &amp;amp; Roses, into a stage musical with his wife, actress/singer/writer Jill Abramovitz, who’s on standby for the cast of the new all-star Broadway production, All In. There’s definitely a lot to get to, so let’s get to it!
