He graduated from Delos, Dimitra’s Chatoupi Drama School, and in 2012 he created the Aiolos team, which has produced a variety of plays, directed by Vasilis Andreou.He has stared in Erich’s Kästner play “Emil and The Detectives”. His last work was in Costas’s Taktsis “The Third Wedding Wreath”, directed by Konstantinos Markoulakis, and also, he has collaborated with plenty of famous Greek actors, and appeared in many cinematic productions. Michalis Oikonomou was born in 1979 in Athens, and he is a graduate of the Deree, the American College of Greece, in addition, as well as of the Drama School of National Theatre of Greece. In theater, he has participated in many performances, including Ilian’s Hatsor play “The masked”, for which he was awarded a Dimitris Horn prize. He has worked with many successful directors and his theatrical shows have joined Athens’ Epidaurus Festival, while also he played in many festival-distinct movies. During this period, he plays in a television show called "Our Best Years". He is in a relationship with Giorgos Makris since 2015 and since 2019 they have been raising little Nikiforos together, while also speaking openly about their history, because they believe in the importance of visibility, in order to fight for further rights relating to same-sex families.
