  1. He gave voice to many under represented communities. He was a visionary that paved the way for great talent to be showcased and magnificent stories to be told. Even more amazing is how he transformed limited resources into a grand presentation. RIP Bryan!

  2. My heart is truly aching!!! Bryan and I shared some wonderful intimate conversations about two loves we had a similar passion for; life and theatre.
    What a gift Bryan was to so many. RIP friend💜

  3. Brian was my teacher for an IUPUI drama class that sparked a love of performance that has continued ever since. He was a wonderfully patient man with us, and had an amazing knack for knowing just what it took to get us to achieve a level of greatness we didn’t know we had. I’m terribly saddened to learn of his passing, but am truly honored to have had the chance to work with such an incredible creative force and person. Rest easy brother, you will be missed.
