He is a two-time Tony Award nominee for his work in Spamalot, and Shrek The Musical.

Early life

Mike Sieber his older brother was a swimmer and his younger brother Marc was in drama along side him. He is a 1988 graduate of Forest Lake Area High School in Forest Lake, Minnesota, and he was inducted into the Forest Lake Schools Hall of Fame in June, 2017.

On June 1, 2007, Sieber sang tenor in the world premiere of Eric Idle's Not the Messiah (He's a Very Naughty Boy) in Toronto.

On January 31, 2014, it was announced that Sieber would be joining the company of Matilda the Musical on Broadway as Miss Trunchbull starting performances on March 18.[2] However, due to a hand injury sustained in rehearsals, he did not start performances until April 18.[3]

Television

Sieber has starred in two television series: Two of a Kind with the Olsen twins and It's All Relative with John Benjamin Hickey and Harriet Sansom Harris. In early 2007, he was scheduled to film a pilot episode for an NBC comedy, Wildlife, playing an eccentric zoologist. The pilot did not make the final cut and was not picked up for the fall season.[4] Sieber has also guest-starred in Pushing Daisies, Sex and the City and The Good Wife.

While It's All Relative was being produced, Sieber came out as gay and said that he was happily partnered to actor and chef Kevin Burrows.[5] They married on November 24, 2011, in New York City.[1]

Sieber is involved with Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS (BC/EFA) and has appeared in several of its Broadway Cares revues, among other events the charity produces. He teaches classes on drama and performance.
