Most recently Michael was seen on stage at RADA Studio Theatre in a new play, "Watching With Lincoln". It takes place in the telegraph office of the War Department on the eve of the presidential election of 1864. The fate of the union hangs in the balance as well as the fate of America. Michael played the iconic president in this one man play which he also wrote and produced. The play was directed by Lora Davies.
And at the Teahouse Theatre in London in he played "Clarence Darrow", a play about the famous civil rights lawyer. The play was written by David W. Rintels and all proceeds were donated to Amnesty International. To view a film of the performance, click here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rzhU9mAkoo&feature=youtu.be
Michael recently completed work on "Endeavour" the spin off of "Inspector Morse". He also worked on "The Raven", a film about Edgar Allan Poe, starring John Cusack and "Dark Shadows" directed by Tim Burton. He wrote a new play, "A More Perfect Union" about the paradoxes of law and justice. Previously he wrote "Liberty Rising" a revolutionary war play featuring George Washington, John Adams and their wives, Martha and Abigail. Two new screenplays have also been written, "When the Lights Went Out" and "Finding Jobe". The first is a modern homage to the classic film, "It Happened One Night" directed by Frank Capra. The latter is a spy thriller.
Jobe, who works for a hi tech research and development company, finds his life beset by powers unknown. A further draft of "Lost Heir" based on the novel by Vickery Turner has also been completed. The novel was published posthumusly and is one of Ms Turner's best.
