Career in the Arts
He began writing theatre songs in his early twenties for Empty Space Theatre, for a series of outdoor park shows produced throughout the 1970s and '80s, including titles such as Carlo Goldoni's The Venetian Twins, Voice of the Mountain, Deadwood Dick, Gammer Gurton's Needle, The Sidewalks of New York, and many others.

Chad Henry co-authored, with A. M. Collins, the long-running rock musical Angry Housewives, which played for seven years in Seattle, breaking all long-run records in that city.
