About
Gordon Michaels’ Productions are a deeply personal expression of his soul. As a singer in his Church’s Children’s choir at age 3, performing developed into a passion and profession. He was n exceptional talent at New York City’s Music & Arts High School from which he was lucky enough to appear in the movie “FAME” and be on the recording. He earned a scholarship to the Boston Conservatory of Music for Opera but found his love in Musical Theater and is what he earned his BFA in.
He’s at ease singing show tunes, jazz, blues, pop and gospel and even some country. A complete southern gentleman at heart, he knows how to entertain and leave you wanting more.

How did you get started teaching?
I have been directing choirs in church since I was a child. I started teaching about 15 yrs out of college after I took a break from performing and being on the road from overseas touring and headlining on cruise ships.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with beginnners young and old. Some work with children ages 8 and up. Also with those who sang when they were younger and want to get their chops back. As well as short terms students who just want to work on an audition piece for theater or something like the Voice or American Idol.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
My yearly Holiday Concert & Toy Drive in December. It is a concert that fills people with the spirt of giving to those who have less or have fallen on hard times while listening to the holiday music and the spirit of the season. Everyone is just alittle bit more happy and cheerful.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Look for a teacher you can relate to and who understands what you what and need to get out of your lessons. Sometimes it's not just all text book.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Where they want to be after lessons. Also what is the gold and where will they get to show off what they have learned and been working on.
