Michael Berresse went straight from high school to performing at Disneyland, then at Walt Disney World, and then Tokyo Disneyland. From there, he moved to New York, where he’s appeared in over 7,000 performances of 11 Broadway shows.

Michael made his Broadway debut in the 1990 revival of Fiddler on the Roof.

He also starred in Chicago (first as Fred Casely and later as Billy Flynn), Guys and Dolls, Carousel, Damn Yankees, The Light in the Piazza, the revival of A Chorus Line as Zach, and The Cher Show where he played the roles of Bob Mackie, Robert Altman, and Artie.

Also on Broadway, Michael directed and choreographed the musical, [title of show], for which he was nominated for a Lucille Lortel Award and a recipient of off-Broadway's Obie Award.

On film, Michael stalked Russell Crowe in State of Play, rescued Haley Joel Osment in A.I. Artificial Intelligence directed by Steven Spielberg, and offed Albert Finney in The Bourne Legacy. He also appeared as himself in the documentary film Every Little Step, which follows the casting process of the production of A Chorus Line.

He’s also fallen into the orchestra pit on Broadway…twice…and, of course, Michael and Scott talk about that.
