Nice article indeed. Nice to hear from a swing/ballet girl. That would be very challenging, changing roles all the time.

Thanks for the link. Yes, a very nice interview. And having met Thad at the stage door of the Imperial after his Broadway debut, I can add that he is a very nice man.

I too can attest to Thad being a very nice guy in person. I remember he was telling us how many costume changes he had in "Solidarity". He was one of the male ensemble members who kept changing between miner and policeman every few minutes during the number.

The article says he is now an understudy for "the tap-dancing piano-man, Mr. Braithwaite."
