He leaves behind a legacy of brilliant work & the many talented actors he's taught & mentored. On behalf of all the Dream 7 family & alumni, We thank you. We love you. Cool Runnings Uncle Mike Rest easy.

Dream 7 is a Darkhorse member company. Michael L has been Darkhorse family since way back in 2002 when he first created Cultural Millennium. Over the years he brought his unique voice to our community with Gospel, Pulpits, Perspectives from a Five Year Journey, Sepia Chronicles, Smokin’ Room, Down, Tied Up, Dark Horseman, Gems, Dream within a Dream, Advising Uncles, Riotous Behaviors, Duplexes, Man Up Chronicles, Black Knight, 2 South, Essays and Anthology. Michael helped create the Shades of Black Festival. Michael wasn’t afraid to weave his personal experiences into his plays. He generously shared his life, his mistakes and the wisdom he gained with all of us. We will miss him.
