Michael Wiles Shakespeare Lover
Michael Wiles always felt that Shakespeare spoke
to some true string of humanity that has remained
poignant even after four hundred years. He has
since worked for hundreds of theater companies
over the ensuing fifteen years throughout
California. Only Wiles always has a better
reaction to his feelings of uncertainty and woe.
He also works as a musical director and voice
coach for up and coming musical actors. He
figures that if the Prince of Denmark can have an
existential crisis, he can have one too. After
earning his BFA in acting from the Cornish
College of the Arts in Seattle in 1997, he moved
to San Francisco to pursue his dream.
Michael Wiles has read the complete works of
Shakespeare three times, and every time he
prepares for any part, he says he reads Hamlet,
in order to rid himself of hesitancy and
uncertainty. Wiles owes his start to Shakespeare.
He also owes his continuing success to the Bard.
Michael Wiles cannot get enough Shakespeare in
his life.

After some years of distinction in San Francisco,
Michael Wiles moved north to Sacramento, where he
now works as a vocal coach, casting director, and
all around mentor for up and coming actors. Wiles

him appreciate the actor more, and made him fall

Michael Wiles Music Lover
Michael Wiles has to listen to rehearsals,
recordings of past performances, individual
singers, and more over and over. He says that the
job suits him because of the hours he spends with
headphones on analyzing performances and
processing them analytically.
He says that he wouldnt have the ear he prides
himself in if he hadnt spent much of his youth
listening to what his father listened to the
Rolling Stones, The Beatles, and Johnny Cash.
Michael says that part of the reason he considers
musical director his dream job is because of the
amount of time he spends listening to music.
