"A long time ago when the earth was green...." Mitch got home from Africa and joined the Rascals in 2002. Mitch is a man of a thousand faces, has worked with many Winnipeg theatre companies, including Sick +Twisted, North Kildonan Community Players, Phoenix Productions, Theatre & Play, Merlyn Productions and White Rabbit Productions. He is also one of the founding members of Strokes of Genius Comedy (comedy from stroke survivors). Since 2002, he has been participating in the Winnipeg Fringe Festival, where he has several times donned the director’s hat to such hits as “Cabaret” and “This is a Play”. He also spent a few years travelling with international performance troupes. Mitch served as the Artistic Director of the BS Comedy Players (Musical Political Satire) for 8 years until its closure in 2019, and the artistic director of Crosswalk Productions. He received his dramatic training through the University of Winnipeg’s theatre program and has taught his own Theatre Ensemble class at the Canadian Mennonite University.
In 2016 Mitch suffered a major spinal injury and severe stroke that left his ability to be the "physical comedy" guy extremely altered, but his ability to create fun and interesting characters always entertains audiences.
