Michael in "Sleuth"
Michael will be starring in the Bill Kenwright production of "Sleuth", touring the UK in the first six months of 2008. He will be portraying Milo while Simon MacCorkindale ('Casualty', 'Manimal', 'Falcon Crest', etc ) will be doing Andrew. Sleuth (Play) Play: Anthony Shaffer's masterpiece in which a young man arrives at the impressive home of a famous mystery writer, only to be unwittingly drawn into a tangled web of intrigue and gamesmanship, where nothing is quite what it seems… This dark psychological ‘thriller about thrillers’ and intriguing study of human conflict, jealousy and manipulation, proves to be far more than a ‘whodunit’ and promises to baffle even the most proficient sleuth! Winner of the Tony Award on Broadway and basis of the acclaimed film starring Laurence Olivier and Michael Caine.

Misery (Play) One of best stories by the master of horror Stephen King, Misery is a taut claustrophobic thriller which probes the disturbing elements of fame. The author of an extremely popular romance series called "Misery", Paul Sheldon is seriously injured when he has a car accident in the wilds of Colorado. Along comes Annie Wilkes, a local nurse who is also a fan of the "Misery" series. Annie takes Paul home to give him loving care. All is well... until she discovers that Paul has killed off Misery in his latest book. In a rage, the fanatical Annie demands that the bedridden Paul rewrite the story to her liking. If he doesn't, he'll suffer heavy "editing" to himself, via Annie's axe. Misery was adapted for the stage by Simon Moore, who wrote the screenplays Under Suspicion (which he also directed) and The Quick and the Dead, as well as several plays, including the musical Up on the Roof. Television miniseries written by Moore include The 10th Kingdom, Dinotopia, and the acclaimed BBC miniseries Traffik. The latter was later made into an Oscar-winning movie directed by Steven Soderbergh.
