In addition to acting, he is also the resident Pyrotechnical Master, where he gets to play around with fire, explosives, and firearms (safely of course!). Michael has an M.F.A. in Acting from the University of Houston and a B.F.A. in Acting from Montclair State University. He has also taught at Western Carolina University. He would like to thank Pendragon Theatre for this opportunity, his family and friends who are always so supportive, and for all the people of Saranac Lake who are coming to enjoy the show!
