Michael Milligan

Michael is a performer who has been writing and acting for the theatre for almost two decades. Milligan has appeared on the Broadway stage as Little Charles in August: Osage County, De Bries in La Bete, and as a "raver" and understudy on Jerusalem. No stranger to the one-man show, Milligan performed Will Eno’s title role of Thom Pain in the original New York run taking over from James Urbaniak and T. Ryder Smith at the DR2. Other New York credits include The Golem with Robert Prosky, the world premiere of The Empty Ocean with Harold Clurman Theater Lab, and Nightlands with New Georges.
