For years after college, Broadway performer Chad Kimball enjoyed a charmed career. He arrived on the Great White Way fresh out of Boston Conservatory, encouraged to attend by a high school drama teacher who saw promise in him. Though tales of grueling Chorus Line-style auditions while waiting tables and praying for a big break abound, Kimball’s path to theater stardom was relatively smooth. Within the first week, he’d booked his first Broadway show.
“It was totally providential,” the 45-year-old tells me, then adds with a laugh, “It also shut down three weeks later.”
