Great Emcee

Matt came to Rebel Race full of energy with his PA system, as our emcee at the starting line for each race wave. He went above and beyond what he was supposed to do. He even played music at the start line for the race to give everyone an awesome experience.

I can't say enough wonderful things about your contribution to our luncheon last month. You have a gift in the way you engage an audience. You embrace everyone in the room immediately with a sincere warmth and a love for the music. You can't help but sing along. You are blessed with great talent and an outstanding voice, but it is the fact that you are having so much fun in preforming the music that we all love that we found ourselves wanting more. We didn't want your songs to end! I would recommend you for any party, wedding, or gathering to entertain guests. Your charm overflows into the room. We would love to have you back any time! Thank you again for a perfect day!

About

Matt Macis began his career at age 16 in the Off-Broadway hit "The Awesome 80s Prom", directed by the show's creator and writer Ken Davenport. Hailed "a genuine find" with "an impressive dramatic and vocal range" by The Washington Post, this 25 year old performer has headlined casinos, performed at festivals, theaters, cabarets, night clubs, and private galas around the U.S. and Canada in areas like New York City, Atlantic City, the Poconos, and Catskills, was in the Broadway show "Rocktopia", and performed alongside or opened for nationally acclaimed entertainers like Deana Martin (daughter of Dean Martin), Robert Goulet, Shirley Jones and more. He has circled the globe in his signature "Tribute to Michael Jackson" several times over, with one of his proudest moments onstage being when, in 2010, he fronted the band from the would-be concert and record-breaking film Michael Jackson's THIS IS IT. He recently completed a year-long run with Sight & Sound Theatres, performing 11 shows a week for 2,000 audience members at each performance. While passion is singing the timeless classics of the Great American Songbook, his repertoire spans the pop standards of the past century. Matt Macis delivers delightful music, hilarious comedy, memorable song-and-dance routines, and more -- making him an ideal choice for entertaining the most diverse of audiences.
