C. Conrad Cady, Bay Area Theater Actor and Major Greenroom Geek
Release Date: 07/07/2020
Description: Our guest on this episode is C. Conrad Cady - Conrad is the quintessential Theater Geek and I just had to have him on the show to talk about his many years of doing community theater around the Bay Area. We even did two shows together. I thought it was three, but he set me straight. Anyway…Conrad has a ton of stories - I had to cut down our chat from 2 hours to 1 and that was barely scratching the surface. Conrad has logged over 75 productions over the course of 26 years from 1993 to 2019. His roles have included from “Father” in Bunnicula at the Children’s Theatre Workshop in Pleasanton to most recently Herr Schultz in Cabaret at Chanticleers in Castro Valley as well as appearing as Vladimir Lenin on the History Channel’s “The World Wars” part 1 of ‘Trial by Fire” where he was the only non-union actor on set. Watch it here: https://youtu.be/p83XltIvat0Check out his extensive resume online here: http://www.cadytech.com/conrad/actres.php as well as tons of photos from the shows he’s acted in and see the extensive list of plays, musicals and many awards he’s won in the Bay Area. He may have started “late” at 28, he made up for it in passion, focus, and pure geeky love of theater and performing.Find us at https://www.facebook.com/Geeks-in-the-Green-Room-106822427731180/ and leave a kind comment and let us know who you’d like me to interview!
