“The show was entertaining, inspiring, and refreshing! It truly helped us at OPL fulfill our mission to transform lives. On a personal level, his show and book taught me quite a bit about autism, which will allow me to be more empathetic with those I encounter.” - OTTAWA PUBLIC LIBRARY
“Thank you for sharing your amazing talent of looking at the lighter side of life. You bring so much light to others.” - JESSICA CRANCH, FRIENDS & ADVOCATES PEEL
“Your stand-up act was truly inspirational and fantastic. We had very positive feedback from our community partners and our staff. Everyone loved it!” - WOODVIEW CHILDREN’SMENTAL HEALTH SERVICES
Funny, You Don’t Look Autistic is a theatrical adaptation of Michael’s autobiographical book of the same name, published in 2019 by Annick Press. The show blends Michael’s trademark deadpan delivery with Green Thumb’s history for bringing socially conscious theatre to the stage. The show will touch audiences deeply, while making them laugh out loud. Michael’s story is one of challenge, growth, and ultimately triumph.
