LaChiusa, Michael John (b. 1962), composer, lyricist, and librettist. Born in Chautauqua, New York, LaChiusa briefly attended junior college in Boston before going to New York where he started writing musicals, first getting noticed for his
First Ladies Suite (1993). His musical adaptation of Schnitzler's
La Ronde called
Hello Again (1993) was a success Off Broadway, but his Broadway efforts
Marie Christine (1999) and
The Wild Party (2000) were more admired than popular. LaChiusa's other works include
The Petrified Prince (1994) and
Little Fish (2003). The multitalented composer‐writer tackles difficult and demanding projects and is highly regarded in the theatre community.
