This week on BEFORE THE BREAK, the boys sit down with actor, Ben Rappaport. Ben has had series regular roles on Outsourced and For The People. He’s also had recurring roles on The Good Wife, Mr. Robot, Younger, Law & Order SVU, and Inventing Anna. He can currently be seen on Broadway opposite Sean Hayes in the TONY Nominated play Good Night, Oscar. We discuss moving a lot as a child, getting the acting bug from a production of Romeo & Juliet, the theatre teacher who changed his life, moving to NYC to attend Juilliard, making a fan of casting at ABC while in school, getting a hard dose of reality after Juilliard, booking the lead of a TV series after a dry spell, getting cast in a handful of pilots that never got picked up, and adjusting to self-tapes. That and much more!
