Hi! My name is Michael Jon Kaplan, and I inspire imagination for a living. I am an Acting/Musical Theatre teacher who has worked at Studios, Camps, and NYC Public Schools. I am an Acting/Voice Coach with over 18 years of experience as well as an Actor, Singer, and Director... just don't ask me to dance. I have also recently taken up Stage Photography, basically I am passionate about all things theatre and acting! I specialize in working with young artists ages in grades 5 - college. My students can be seen on stages all over the east coast, in prestigious college musical theatre programs, on tv, and in independent films.  Thanks for visiting my site. Please feel free to look around. If you are interested in hiring me to teach/coach/direct/photograph please use the "Work With Mike!" tab and I will get back to you right away.
