Brad is a Baltimore based Director, Fight Choreographer, Scenic Artist, Sound Designer, Production Manager, and nerd who is thrilled to be directing Airness at CCBC where he regularly serves at the Production Manager for the Performing Arts Department. He is also currently the Managing Director of Fells Point Corner Theatre, and GM for Planar Taxi Co., a D&D live play show. He is passionate about justice, representation, indigenous sovereignty, and centering non-straight-white-cis-male stories and opinions everywhere possible. He himself is a straight-white-cis-male, so this bio is about as much of his story as he is comfortable with you caring about. He loves his wife and kids and would be nowhere without them. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find him, maybe you can hire Brad Norris.
