Michael Lawrence Quintos is a quiet, mild-mannered Art Director by day. But as night falls, he regularly performs on various stages everywhere as a Counter-Tenor soloist, actor, and dancer for The Men Alive Chorus since 2002. He's sung everything from Broadway, Jazz, R&B, Classical, Gospel and Pop. His musical theater roots started early, performing in various school musical productions and a couple of nationally-televised programs. The performing bug eventually brought him a brief championship run in the Philippines' version of "Star Search" before moving to Las Vegas at age 11. College brought him out to Orange County, California, where he earned a BFA in Graphic Design and a BA in Film Screenwriting. He has spent several years as a designer and art director for various entertainment company clients, while spending his free time watching or performing in shows.

BWW Reviews: NEW YORK'S FINEST Concert Lives Up To Its Title
by Michael L. Quintos
If you weren't one of the happy patrons that attended the one-night-only concert NEW YORK'S FINEST: THE LEADING MEN OF BROADWAY at the Ford Amphitheatre on the night of September 16, 2011, then, sadly, you missed out on perhaps one of the strongest, most staggeringly talented collections of male musical theater performers ever assembled on a single stage. Featuring David Burnham (WICKED), Tony winner Levi Kreis (MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET), Tony nominee Brandon Victor Dixon (THE SCOTTSBORO BOYS), American Idol's Ace Young (HAIR), and helmed by one of Broadway performer Sam Harris, the superb concert event truly lived up to its very bold, declarative title.
