Michael’s personal story performed as a one-man play is a stimulating catalyst for dialogue on a multitude of issues. Taking on characters of both races, he challenges the audience’s preconceived notions of identity. For more than 15 years, this non-traditional, unique entertaining presentation has captivated audiences.Michael has performed the show throughout the country, inviting audiences to question and discuss their thoughts on race and identity, as he has come to question and embrace his own.
