Michael Rooney is one of the most innovative choreographers of our time. Always on the cutting edge Michael continues to take the project at hand and twirl it into the best of the best. Michael approaches each job like a tailor does, designing the choreography to suit the project. "Each job I have done in the past has been different. Ad agencies are always looking for the latest trend and that's what I give them." Michael is a contemporary visionary with the creative genius to transcend time moving from one era to another with ease and perfection giving each project he choreographs it's own award-winning style. Always acknowledged for his own style, he continues to be a warrior in the path of his own vision. He is synonymous with Bob Fosse when it comes to sticking to his creative guns. Not wanting to re-create past works of other choreographers, but laying down solid tracks that directors in the future will call genius. http://la.blocagency.com/talent/choreography/michael-rooney

On vacation in Los Angeles, Walter, the world's biggest Muppet fan, and his friends Gary (Jason Segel) and Mary (Amy Adams) from Smalltown, USA, discover the nefarious plan of oilman Tex Richman (Chris Cooper) to raze the Muppet Theater and drill for the oil recently discovered beneath the Muppets' former stomping grounds. To stage The Greatest Muppet Telethon Ever and raise the $10 million needed to save the theater, Walter, Mary and Gary help Kermit reunite the Muppets, who have all gone their separate ways: Fozzie now performs with a Reno casino tribute band called the Moopets, Miss Piggy is a plus-size fashion editor at Vogue Paris, Animal is in a Santa Barbara clinic for anger management, and Gonzo is a high-powered plumbing magnate. With secret, signature, celebrity cameos, "The Muppets" hits the big screen Nov. 23, 2011.
