As it’s Easter this week and people are away on holiday, rather than the full show, we’ve got an extra special interview with the man behind the music for the MARVEL UNIVERSE LIVE! stage show, which should be coming to the UK soon!
Michael Picton is an award-winning composer writing for film, television, theatre, concert, branding, advertising, and circus. His network themes for PBS, CNN, Amazon and others are broadcast continuously around the world; his circus and theatre music can be heard in concert halls, arenas and theatres across North America; his media work includes TV series, feature films, documentaries, promos and ads.
In 2006 Michael composed the score and songs for his first circus, Bellobration, the 137th edition of Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey. He has gone on to create music for seven more Ringling Brothers shows with Feld Entertainment as well as music for Disney Live and, most recently, the arena spectacle Marvel Universe Live. He has composed three shows in an ongoing collaboration with the company Cirque Mechanics: Boom Town, Cirque Mechanics with Orchestra, and Pedal Punk.
