Happy New Year! Well, it has been a little while since my last update, but the good news is it's due to the fact that I've been keeping busy! After my wonderful experience at the Brown County Playhouse in Nashville, Indiana, I came back to NYC and began rehearsals for the Red Fern Theatre Company's adaptation of Oscar Wilde's An Ideal Husband. Check out their website for details on this wonderful company.  - Also, I'm currently in the last week of my run with Wide Eyed Productions and Shortened Attention Span's critically acclaimed production of Jerrod Bogard's The Spin Cycle: 5 plays by Jerrod Bogard.

Hello again! Well, loads have been in the works since my last update. Much Ado About Nothing with Wide Eyed Productions was a huge success, and garnered some wonderful publicity. Here's a link to one of the reviews.

On the horizon, in a little less than two weeks I will begin rehearsals for the New York Classical Theatre's production of Macbeth. Once again I will jump into the Castle of the Scottish King as the Porter and the Doctor this time. Here's a link to the theatre's website.
If you are in NYC this summer, I would love for you to stop on by!

Hello again! I bet you thought "Anthony has this fancy new website, and hasn't touched it since July!" Well, you are correct, I apologize, but my thoughts and actions have been knee deep in William Shakespeare's tragedy Macbeth which just closed a 7+ week tour of Pennsylvania and New Jersey presented by the WillPower Tour at the Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival. Photos coming soon!

The show went off wonderfully, and we successfully reached 15,000+ students, aged from 5th grade to 12th as well as many rural communities that some haven't ever read or seen a Shakespeare play. The reviews were amazing, and the students were equally as wonderful.

Along with playing King Duncan, the Porter, the Macduff family murderer, and a bumbling soldier known as Seyton, I also, with the fellow cast of eight, taught workshops in Shakespeare's Language, Stage Combat, and Character Improvisation. All in all, it was an amazing experience and the cast was truly phenomenal. I look forward to working with such a wonderful company again soon.

In other news, I'm excited to announce my new agents at Schiowitz, Conner, Ankrum and Wolf and look forward to more updates in that area very soon.

I'll be in Colorado from November. 20-26th, to finally get to spend some time with my Family and will return to the Big Apple to hit the entertainment pavement once again

July 28, 2007
Anthony has officially settled into the Big Apple once again and after a very successful showcase with the MFA Graduating Class of 2007 from the Alabama Shakespeare Festival, Anthony will next be seen in the Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival's WillPower tour of Macbeth playing, among other characters, King Duncan and the Porter from September to November 2007! More details to follow check out http://www.pashakespeare.org/will.html for more details!

He graduated with his MFA from the Alabama Shakespeare Festival/University of Alabama on July 7th. Just prior to that at the Festival, Anthony finished a sold out run of Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus playing a wide variety of characters (including a Scholar, a Bishop, and the Sin of Lechery, that's right, Lechery.) And just before Faustus went up, he completed a Five Month run playing a whole host of characters in John Barton's trilogy The Wars of the Roses, a conglomeration of Shakespeare's Henry VI, Parts 1, 2, 3 and Richard III.

He can't wait to see you all in New York and gives a big thanks, a big hug and a big high five (he's working for the gradual reinstatement of the high five) to all of his wonderful family and friends in Alabama and his home, Colorado.
