This blog post is third in a series that is profiling our incredible sponsors and talented community members leading up to our Zombie Prom fundraiser on February 25th. Everyone you see profiled here is dedicated not only to supporting the development of Asian Canadian theatre, but also to building a stronger, truly multicultural Canadian community. fu-GEN certainly would not be the same without the support of these amazing people and organizations.
Today, I want to introduce you to our DJ. Meet Mr. Miquelon Rodriguez (aka Mickey, aka DJ Tronix). His twitter account describes him as "Music, comedy, video games, theatre, and sports all rolled up in a Filipino DJ", and he is second to none when it comes to personality. An outstanding member of the Asian Canadian theatre community, Mickey has been active in the Toronto theatre community since he graduated from York University a few years back. Mickey is multi-talented and has made a name for himself as a sound designer, composer, actor, and playwright. His recent credits include roles in Enter The Shadow (Break It Down) and Shotgun Wedding: The Musical (Carlos Bulosan Theatre), and composing for From Thine Eyes (Native Earth Performing Arts). In fact, Mickey is currently a member of fu-GEN's 9th annual playwriting unit, The Kitchen.
Mickey has been DJing since 1999, but has music in his blood having played piano, guitar and percussion since childhood. He has generously donated his services to fu-GEN and will be dropping beats at our Zombie Prom on Saturday night. You can find him on twitter by following @djtronix.
