MIGGUEL ANGGELO

Miami and Brooklyn-based and Venezuelan-born, Migguel Anggelo is an interdisciplinary performing artist. He invokes muses from art history, harnessing this lineage in effortlessly forward-thinking ways. He mines from his journeys as a Latino immigrant and a queer man: a fountain of source material to explore shared human experiences. He expresses himself through costume, musical composition, movement, and theater work, evoking the “showmanship of Desi Arnaz and the performance art of Klaus Nomi” (Theater Scene). His lyrical movement recalls Marcel Marceau, and his comic timing alludes to Charlie Chaplin. Marked by pop ambition, he nods towards the likes of David Bowie and Freddie Mercury. With unabashed theatricality, Migguel Anggelo straddles decades, genres, and cultures.

In 2023 – 2024, Migguel toured his critically acclaimed theatrical concert LatinXoxo, presented at the Under the Radar Festival at the Public Theater and across the U.S., including Stanford Live, Green Music Center, Miami Light Project, and the Kravis Center. LatinXoxo peels back personas while strip-teasing “Latin lover” clichés and reckoning with the death of his homophobic father.

In 2024, Migguel served as the first international Fellow for the TD Incubator at Arts Commons in Calgary, where he curated the TD Amplify series and mentored 35 multidisciplinary artists, strengthening Calgary’s vibrant arts community.

He is currently developing three major projects: English with an Accent (EWaA), JOY, and ICONS (honoring Freddie Mercury and Celia Cruz), all supported by Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. EWaA debuted in Washington, D.C. in 2022, co-presented by Washington Performing Arts and Gala Hispanic Theatre, and later at Lincoln Center. The project received co-commissioning and developmental support from Lincoln Center, Montgomery College, the Hult Center for the Performing Arts, MASS MoCA, Joe’s Pub at The Public, Greenwich House Music School, and the Forum for Cultural Engagement, among others, with funding from The Russell J. Efros Foundation. JOY premiered at Lincoln Center’s Festival of Firsts in 2023, and ICONS launched as a touring series in the 2025-2026 season.

Migguel has developed stage works including So Close: Love and Hate (2017), Another Son of Venezuela (2015–2016), Welcome to La Misa, Baby (2016–2019), and the short film Maid in America (2020). As a musician, he has released three albums: Dónde Estará Matisse (2012), La Casa Azul (2015), and English with an Accent (2022).

He has held residencies at Lincoln Center, MASS MoCA, Miami Light Project, Joe’s Pub, Kimmel Center, BRIC, and the Cultural Arts Center at Montgomery College, and was a 2020 NY Presenters Consortium Resident Artist and a 2019 Joe’s Pub Working Group member. His work has been featured at festivals including ROUGH DRAFT (LPAC) and AFTERGLOW (Provincetown). Earlier in his career, Migguel toured Russia twice as a cultural attaché under the auspices of the U.S. State Department. He is also an accomplished visual artist with work exhibited in galleries and held in private collections.
