Michael Butts

Michael plays Scooter, who may be the world’s worst intern… unless that’s just what he wants people to believe.

Michael is a recent graduate of Colorado State University with a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre and Sociology. While at CSU, he spent the majority of his time performing in shows and also served as the Artistic Director for the Young Producers Organization. Some of his notable roles include The Duking of Buckingham in The Three Musketeers with OpenStage Theatre, and Mr. Darcy and Mr. Collins in Pride @ Prejudice, King Polixenes in The Winters Tale, Dwalin in The Hobbit and roles in Reefer Maddness and Ubu Roi with University Theatre, among others. His future aspirations include moving to New York and pursuing Theatre full time. He wishes to thank his friends and family for their support in keeping his dreams alive.

Ideation

By Aaron Loeb and Directed by Kate Austin-Groen 

“Devilishly funny and demonically dark, Loeb’s hilarity makes us, as the title suggests, think.” San Francisco Chronicle

Ninety minutes from now, a group of stressed-out corporate consultants is slated to present their work on a mysterious project. It’s time to brainstorm within the morally ambiguous parameters they’ve been given so they can make it to their kids’ soccer games and continue their ill-advised affairs. But as they work, the question of what they aren’t being told looms ever larger, becoming harder to ignore. If something truly monstrous is going on, it wouldn’t be happening over Starbucks scones . . . would it? A ferocious and hilarious thriller.
