WHEN LIFE HANDS YOU
MICHELLE LEMON
My dad likes to tell this story about me as a four-year-old. He found me sitting on the kitchen floor one day surrounded by upside-down tupperware, belting "How Do you Solve a Problem Like Maria?” while happily banging on my tupperware “drumset" with wooden spoons. Honestly, this is a pretty accurate depiction of me as a human being to this day. I suppose I've matured a bit and grown a few inches since then...
Oh hey there! I am a New York City based Dancer/Singer/Actor/
Instrumentalist/Collaborator with a passion for musical comedy. I’ve performed in the National Tour of
My Fair Lady as well as at regional theatres across the country, including The Gateway Playhouse, The Phoenix Theatre Company, Arts Center of Coastal Carolina, The Sharon Playhouse, and more. I play the accordion, piano, and percussion, pick up gigs as a showgirl & dancer/drummer, and have been featured in music videos and short films.
Originally from Madison, WI, I began my professional career in Minneapolis, MN, while attending the University of Minnesota for my BFA in Dance. Although my home base is now NYC, I am a midwesterner at heart. I love cultivating joy, playfulness, and human connection onstage and off.
