Musical Improv Level One Intensive with Greg Moss and Michael Lutton

BA: Sarah Lawrence College. MFA: NYU Tisch School of the Arts, Musical Theatre Writing. Proud member of the Dramatists Guild and ASCAP. He can often be found at the Magnet Theater accompanying various shows or performing with his musical improv house team, Lil’ Spoon. He was the director and music director of the Off-Broadway improvised musical show, The Others of Oz. His writing credits include The Great Cat Massacre (Off-Broadway, St. Luke’s Theater), A Hundred Thousand Places (NYU), and a ditty in the Independent Spirit Award-nominated film, birth/rebirth. He has studied improv at Upright Citizens Brigade and the Magnet Theater with the likes of Jason Mantzoukas, Tara Copeland, Jean Villepique, and Michael Lutton. He loves music and improv, but not half as much as he loves his wife, Danielle.

Michael has been a Magnet instructor since 2011. He has travelled the country performing in festivals and has taught workshops in Boston and Washington, DC. He has also taught several corporate and team-building workshops.

He began improvising in 2006, and was lucky to train with teachers such as Armando Diaz, Rachel Hamilton, James Eason, and Tara Copeland.

Michael currently teaches Level 1, Level 4: Monoscene, Musical Improv Level 1 and Musical Improv Level 3.

In addition to his teaching duties, Michael is the Director of the Musical Improv Program at the Magnet.
