BIO

With the US First National Touring Cast of Jersey Boys, Michael performed all across North America including the 2011 White House National Christmas Tree Lighting as well as on the Jubilee Auditorium stage in Calgary, Alberta where, many years earlier, little Lomenda sat front row watching his first musical. After nearly 2 years on the road, and days before his Jersey Boys run concluded at the Curran Theatre in San Francisco, during a matinee Michael received a text from a cast member saying Clint Eastwood was in the audience. Michael survived his nerves, and after the show, he shook hands with the gracious and enthusiastic Eastwood, wearing his JB ball cap. A few weeks later Michael was called to audition for Eastwood in New York and, a mere month following that, having never performed on film before, he was officially cast to star in Warner Brothers and Clint Eastwood's feature film adaptation of Jersey Boys. Since the international release of the Jersey Boys film, Michael has had the opportunity to visit Asia, relocate from Toronto to LA, attend his first film premiere, write his own material, and finally get the rescue dog he’s always wanted. Michael’s hometown Stettler invited him as a Guest of Honor to their own premiere screening of Jersey Boys which raised over $14,000 for local arts programs and screened at the Jewel Theatre, where a young Michael once went on his first date. Most recently Michael was invited as a guest of President Obama and the First Lady, Michelle Obama to perform at a White House State Dinner honoring the Japanese Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe and his wife Mrs. Abe. After the dinner and performance, The First Lady hugged Michael, expressed that Jersey Boys was the Japanese Prime Minister’s favorite movie, and that she and the President were thrilled to have him there. Michael has never been more humbly wordless.
