  • Disaster!

    So my old WordPress theme didn’t work with newer versions and I lost everything. Bear with me as I slowly try to rebuild this site… and feel free to leave a comment if you find something broken. Thanks, Mike

  • Love’s Labour

    If one is in the theater long enough they will be afforded the opportunity to assay texts, and sometimes roles, more than once. This often affords one the opportunity to fix mistakes made before. I first played in Shakespeare’s Love’s Labour’s Lost in the mid-90’s with Frank Farrell’s Shakespeare’s Herd, as “Holofernes” the pedant, and…

  • Theater Roundup 2016

    I continue to be blessed and grateful to have a career in this second “oldest profession.” 2016: “Haunted House Party” at the Getty Villa, Troubador Theater Company, an absolute dream to perform in their 500-seat outdoor Roman amphitheater without any amplification! 2016 Kingsmen Shakespeare Festival: Henry V and Midsummer’s (My fourth… or is it fifth……

  • Emmy Nominated

    Had a fantastic day on set with Director Carlos Reza, Emmy-nominated actress Vanessa Vasquez, and the entire creative team behind Hulu’s hit original Emmy-nominated web series, East Los High. Emmy nominated!   In theater news, there is one more week of performances of “Oz 2.5” at South Coast Repertory Theater, closing June 7. It’s a fun…

  • New live shows

    I’ve added a page with a schedule of upcoming performances at Griffith Observatory, where I moonlight (heh) as a narrator of their live planetarium shows.

  • Oh, Sheesh, what did I miss?

    I have a hard time keeping up with posting here, I admit it. I am beginning to despise Facebook, so maybe I will just transition here, where I at least have the illusion of control over what is revealed. At any rate, what happened in the last year? I was in an amazing production of…

  • You’ve seen it by now…

    I’ve got a new commercial running. In fact it’s been running, but I finally added it to my commercials page.

  • IN MOTHER WORDS

    So I was cast as the Male understudy at the Geffen Playhouse for the production in their smaller theater, “IN MOTHER WORDS.” The best part? I get to go to a cast party at Jane Kaczmarek’s house! Hey, an acting job is an acting job… this is my third straight AEA contract in 6 months.

  • Gingerbread!

    The Gingerbread Man is open and is causing 1,000 K-12 children a day to scream their heads off. It’s a rollicking good time. Who knew there was a highly professional, full-Actor’s-Equity, children’s theater company in Rancho Cucamonga? Who knew Rancho Cucamonga was even a real town, not something Jack Benny made up?
