About Dennis C. Michael
Who is this guy?
With all due humility, I’ve done a lot of crazy stuff as a performer.
Having retired a few years earlier, I was asked in 2022 to fill in for a number of Santa Claus dates, as Covid had created a shortage of St. Nicks. I found the activity both fun and challenging, and have decided to pursue it more professionally. So book me up, and I’ll be drinking your eggnog in your cheery decorated house before you know it!
