I&#8217;ve been fortunate enough to work with both he and his sister throughout their youth and teen years. This year, Ben got accepted as 1 of 16 to BYU&#8217;s Music Dance Theater program. I have always been impressed with how hard Ben works. I&#8217;ve been able to attend many of his performances and wish I had had time for more because every body of work he has taken, he had done so with passion and soulful fire and has portrayed some amazing characters. Let&#8217;s just say, Ben Graul has many faces. My favorite moment was seeing him perform a monologue from Angels in America. It was moving and I could see how he received straight superiors and won best dramatic monologue. We have had some amazing lightbulb moments in our sessions over the years and I know Ben will be successful at whatever he pursues. I&#8217;m a better human being for knowing someone like Ben.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ben Graul will always hold a special place in my heart.
