In addition to Rent, his Broadway credits include If/Then, Next to Normal, Grey Gardens, Dear Evan Hansen, and War Paint. Other credits include Our Lady of Kibeho, Landscape of the Body, Beauty of the Father, and Mrs. Sharp.Michael found a way to buck the Broadway trend and deliver smash after smash.  Listen to how he does it, as well as . . . How he started his career by self-producing his own show. What made him decide he wasn’t ready for New York, and why he went to graduate school instead. What changed about Dear Evan Hansen since the first reading, and why (spoiler alert: there was an ensemble) Why a “small” musical can be more powerful than a “big” one. They can’t all be Rent.  What he does when a show doesn’t live up to what he initially hoped.  Keep up with me: @KenDavenportBwaywww.theproducersperspective.com Learn more about your ad choices.
