This limber, talented young man has become one of the best-known actors in the Twin Cities in little more than a year. In January 2014, he flew in from the balcony of the Pantages Theatre and commanded the stage as the brilliant Emcee in "Cabaret." He then morphed into the charming, sweet voice of Prince Eric in "The Little Mermaid" at Chanhassen Dinner Theatres. His portrayal of Freddy Eynsford-Hill was a high point of the Guthrie's "My Fair Lady" last summer, and Joe Dowling got Michaels in to play Puck; Michaels devoured the role. Now, he's flying high again as Peter Pan at CTC.
