Ben and Bobby met doing the Broadway revival of Ragtime. Ben was 11, Bobby was 27. Fast forward, now Ben is 26 and starring in the Broadway production of Illinoise. He is on the verge of a big moment, one that he is intent on staying present and grateful for, no matter how it unfolds. The actors discuss hard won lessons in leading with expectations that have led to disappointment and loss of core purpose, while sharing how they both returned to values that redefine success in more personal terms.
