Certainly not starring opposite two-time Tony winner Kara Young in a revival of an early play by Pulitzer finalist Rajiv Joseph (Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo, Archduke) about the 30-year relationship between a dysfunctional pair of pals bonded by pain and suffering. Braun says he feels "safe" with Young in this twisty tale of "two people who feel most alive together," according to director Neil Pepe. So, what is Braun afraid of? Watch our interview to find out!
