Podcast Exclusive: The Theatre Podcast with Alan Seales: Chad Kimball. Tony-nominee, Seattle native, mistaken for a seat filler at the Tony Awards.

This episode features Tony nominee Chad Kimball, currently starring in the Broadway production of Come From Away. The episode discusses a wide range of topics from Chad's early life in Seattle, to attending Boston Conservatory, joining Civil War on Broadway three weeks before closing, his Tony nominated performance in Memphis and even how he kicked his addiction to Adderall. Chad is now starring in Come From Away on Broadway.

While discussing how this self-proclaimed introvert finds solace and comfort exploring unknown parts of himself via the characters he plays, we also talk about:

  • Growing up in Seattle as a shy child and how his family came to the US from Norway
  • How he developed the character of Huey Calhoun in his Tony nominated performance in Memphis The Musical
  • Coming to terms with his addiction to Adderall and going to rehab
  • Playing a character based on a real person in Come From Away, and the friendships that have blossomed from this experience
