Mike's Headshot

Mike Mayhall

Not only is Michael a gifted actor, but he has been recognized as an Actor/Combatant by the Society of American Fight Directors and is an accomplished Fight Choreographer as well as produced playwright.  Michael earned his degree in Theatrical performance and directing from Northwestern State University of Louisiana and has been working as a professional actor and fight choreographer for the last 12 years.

As an actor he has performed and had leading roles in Romeo & Juliet, The Taming of The Shrew, Wait Until Dark, Beast on the Moon, A Midsummer Night's Dream and Assassins, just to name a few.  He has performed at Universal Studios/IOA in the 7th Voyage of Sindbad stunt show, and was part of the opening cast of The Swashbucklers at Islands of Adventure, along with performing in the Halloween Bill & Ted show for several years in various leading roles and various stunts.

As a fight director he has choreographed such shows Romeo & Juliet, I Hate Hamlet, Sea World Orlando’s “ARG” a Pirate show, Cyrano de Bergerac, Misery, MacBeth and many more.  He has taught classes on stage combat and safety for The Central Florida Theatre Alliance, Orlando Shakespeare and Actor Equity Association.

Michael has worked as a stuntman and actor combatant for stage and screen on such projects as “The Dead Will Tell” (USA Pictures), “ESPN Tampa Bucks” national commercial and “Nikki and Nora” a TV pilot filmed in New Orleans.

After looking around at the talent that surrounded him and knowing what a group of skilled professionals could do if drawn together, he formed MAYHEM PRODUCTIONS to bring fun, safe and high quality shows and entertainment to the convention and business world. 

Michael also recognizes that this is a very to the point bio and wants to let everyone know that he does have a since of humor and it's not as stale or as vanilla sounding as the above information sounds, although he does like vanilla ice cream.  He just, for some reason unknown to him or the powers that be, seemed to misplace it while writing this.  And that would also explain why he keeps referring to himself in the third person.
