Surrounding the man are several quotes from reviews in white text, such as 'An excellent example of how contagious passion is,' 'Come revel in [Brett’s] unabashed zest and human-encyclopedic knowledge,' 'This was a joy to watch... Such a great way to spend an hour!,' and 'Brett Moore is worth the price of admission.' In the bottom left corner, there is a circular stamp with 'GIA On The Move' and 'Highly Recommended #HFF24.'

The Brain

Brett Moore

A project manager by day and a writer and occasional stage manager by night, Brett has been involved in the Los Angeles theatre scene and the Hollywood Fringe since 2017. Previously associated with the Sierra Madre Playhouse, Brett generally prefers to be behind the scenes or in the audience, but when the stars align (and baseball is involved), he can be persuaded to step into the batter’s box, as he did for his 2019 solo project, Batter Up: My Brain on Baseball.
