What to expect

"It''s Not What it Looks like" is an hour mix of self deprecating "misunderstandings" and biographical accounts of an upbringing in a mixed cultured environment. The performer takes you in their exploration of never really having an identity; and eventually coming to grips that being mixed (and feeling out of place) is ok :)^^^^^^Born in Caracas, Venezuela and raised by a Miss Venezuela runner-up and a Sephardic Jewish banker; Michael ''''s comedy is a mix of ridiculously self-deprecating stories and hysterical, biographical accounts of an upbringing in a mixed cultured environment. Never really accepting a singular identity, he eventually came to grips with the fact that being mixed, and feeling out of place, is ok
