Michael Coleman

Michael Coleman was a British ballet dancer at the Royal Ballet (at the Royal Opera House of Covent Garden), but he's still a freelance dancer. With ballet veterans Graham Fletcher and Julian Hosking, he appeared on an episode of The Muppet Show dancing as Mutations. I wonder if Michael did some other episodes of The Muppet Show too since there have been instances of that. Other than that, Coleman did many stage dance performances such as Romeo and Juliet, Giselle, Swan Lake, and Cinderella. As for film, he did The Tales of Beatrix Potter and The Slipper and the Rose, not to mention a TV performance of The Nutcracker. He must have done other episodes of The Muppet Show as one of the Bird Dancers or Mutations both seen in several episodes. Michael Coleman even met a few Muppet Show guest stars, well two actually, Leslie Uggams and Rudolf Nureyev. I wonder if his friends ever shared to him their experiences on The Muppet Show since Graham Fletcher did numerous appearances with them. Maybe someday he'll meet up with his ballet veterans again and try to catch up on things. Michael is still doing ballet today, I think, then again he's probably retired and being interviewed on working in the ballet area and with Rudolf Nureyev. Coleman should be proud to have danced on The Muppet Show back when it was being made. Until the world figures out if he's still dancing or not, he should always remember all the great ballet performances he did over the years. You never know if he is or not. Michael Coleman, you're an excellent dancer and your veteran dancers should be proud to have worked with you. If you're still dancing today, keep at it because it's what you do best. And always remember being with the Royal Ballet and The Muppet Show. Fancy footwork you got Michael. Stay light on your feet Coleman!
