"As the owner of the Legacy Dinner Theater, working with James-Michael Roddy was a true pleasure from start to finish. His communication was clear, respectful, and consistent—whether with me, the cast, or the crew. He directed Bello’s Circus Extreme Dinner Show with such care and attention to detail, managing a production that included five America’s Got Talent acts and the legendary Bello Nock. James-Michael created a work environment that was organized, collaborative, and genuinely enjoyable. His professionalism and kindness set the tone for a smooth and successful show. I’d recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a strong, thoughtful leader in the theater world."
David Fee/ CEO and President of Legacy Dinner Theater
“As both a writer and director, Michael’s choices are so instinctively perfect. His finger is on the heartbeat of pop culture more than a teenager for productions that require cutting-edge material. Yet, his strong sense of family and ability to connect emotionally with people can create productions that move audiences to tears of joy. Michael writes and creates shows everyone can relate to, yet are layered so that each audience member may find something different to love about that show.”
Shalisa James - President, Entertainment Central
“He is not only a joy to work with but is a consummate professional and an actor's director. He is driven and talented and so very gifted.”
Leanza Cornett - Miss America, 1992
“It continues to amaze me the depth of his creativity and passion. He has a unique ability to just continue to bring new and “wow” ideas to the table and then makes them become reality. “
Ilene Wilkins - President/CEO UCP of Central Florida
"If you're looking for someone to direct a show with heart, vision, and total professionalism, I can't recommend James-Michael Roddy enough. He directed Bello’s Circus Extreme Dinner Show for us at the Legacy Dinner Theater, which featured five America’s Got Talent acts and starred Bello Nock. James-Michael was incredibly hands-on, collaborative, and always led with kindness and positivity. He creates an environment where creativity thrives and people feel valued. The result was a show that audiences loved and a team that loved being part of it. Any production would be lucky to have him."
