Producer Bradley Evans most recently served as a producer on the feature Holiday Twist, which will be released theatrically on December 1.
He was born in Cleveland, Ohio and raised primarily in the historical town of Norwalk, Ohio.
Bradley attended Cleveland State University and received a bachelor’s degree in marketing. It was in his last year that he became interested in theater arts after taking a few classes.
Having no acting experience, he decided to work as crew in the black box theater helping build the stage and sets. After graduation, he started his wonderful career in the aviation industry. Although Bradley loves aviation to this day, the entertainment industry always seemed to present opportunities to him. He finally gave in!
Bradley joined the community theater in Garfield Heights, OH and fell in love with acting. His most memorable role was playing Zebulan in The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. Shortly after, he landed his first agent and began working consistently in commercials, modeling and print. For many years, he worked mainly in the northeast between Cleveland and New York City. During that time, Bradley was cast in many indie films. It was then he knew he wanted to work in film and television. With the unpredictability in the airline industry, his company moved him to San Francisco. He contined to consistently work shooting national commercials and booked a Japanese TV show. He also had the wonderful opportunity to train at the prestigious American Conservatory Theatre. After four years, Bradley “landed” in Hollywood, where he now resides in Los Angeles.
