My Mission For You
I believe that there is no one method that fits everyone, but that every person and project is different. As a result, I strive to provide fully individualized feedback and education that meets people where they are and moves them toward their goals.
I’m a life-long learner, and I always look for new ways to help people up-level themselves and their projects. Helping others achieve their goals is one of my all-time favorite activities. I’ve collected a sizable base of resources and knowledge over the years, which I use to help others expand their own toolkits through various methodologies. Using my well-earned skills and experience, I try to find what routes work the best for the individual person and project to give the best possible opportunities for success.
I firmly believe in questioning what we understand, always with an eye toward self-analysis and comprehension. It is our job to make other people feel through the stories we tell, and without doing harm to our audiences or to ourselves. So I focus on using rock solid foundations and the specific goals of each individual writer and project to help you tell the best story you are able to tell with the tools you have available.
My personal mission is to open peoples’ minds to what is possible for themselves and for the world, always through the lens of love. And it is with that intent that I approach every client, session, and project. I so look forward to meeting you!
What do my clients say?
Watch and read below to hear from some of my MTWC and course clients:
“It was a deep joy and an absolute privilege to be part of the very first MTWC Course cohort with Michael Radi. Michael expertly curated a Zoom room full of kind, intelligent, creative, and fun people with all different kinds of musical theatre writing experience. Over the 20-week course, we learned from Michael, from terrific guest professional artists, and from each other about the wild ride of musical theatre writing. It was AMAZING to watch everyone grow together as writers as we went from a room full of strangers to a close-knit group of supportive friends, colleagues, and collaborators. Michael gets all the credit for creating a space where we could all show up as our truest and best selves to learn and grow into a strong community. This is the very beginning of MTWC, and I cannot wait to see what it becomes. What a dream space and community for musical theatre writers!”
“I am a Musical Theater actor who decided to take Michael’s class because I enjoy writing, I wanted a better understanding of Musicals, and I already had a great deal of admiration for Michael and his work. His class really delivered so much more than I ever anticipated. After 20 short weeks, I feel like I have a full tool belt to continue writing quality songs for the musical stage. Each lesson was engaging and taught in a way that anyone could comprehend (not just people with prior writing experience). The environment was as nurturing and supportive as could be. I developed trust and comfort with Michael and my classmates very quickly. Therefore, I was able to be vulnerable and accept complements/critique with an open mind. I now have 4+ original songs that I’ve written with different collaborators. Overall, if you’re looking for an experience thats equally parts artistic, fun, and cathartic, I couldn’t endorse Michael’s class enough.
”
“This course was just what I needed to shake up my perspectives, explore new connections, and freshen up everything I thought I knew about songwriting. The opportunity to collaborate in new ways with new people in an affirming, supportive, and growth-oriented environment did wonders to pull me out of my own songwriting rut, and to feel like part of a community that will grow along with me for the rest of my career. Thanks Michael!”
