He has directed Footloose the Musical, Grease, and co-directed the 2010 production of The Wizard of Oz for Acting Up; and Charlotte's Web for the Children's Theatre of Mason.
Backstage, Brahm provided the magic special effects with Scott Meyer for Acting Up's Once On This Island (Excellence in Special Effects Orchid Award), Disney's Alice in Wonderland, and 2010 production of The Wizard of Oz; as well as the magic effects for Lebanon Theatre Company's Pippin (Excellence in Special Effects Orchid Award).
He has also been the creator of a variety of monstrous make-up effects for Acting Up, including: Beast's ferocious make-up for our 2014 production of Disney's Beauty and the Beast, Papa Ge's nightmarish make-up in Once on this Island (Outstanding in Make-up OCTA Fest Award), and the Wicked Witch's terrifying make-up for our 2005 production of The Wizard of Oz.

In 2017, after a 28-year career as a patent and transactions attorney for The Procter & Gamble Company, Brahm retired to initially focus his time on community theatre, acting in independent films, and voice-over work. Through and post-pandemic, Brahm now spends most of his time working out and playing Dungeons & Dragons.
