042 - Don't Judge A Book By It's Cover

Have you ever been unsettled coming upon a tall, muscular black man tattooed from head to toe with piercings through his nose, lips, and eyebrows? Might you avert your eyes and cross the street? Buckle up for this episode fellow daydreamers.  Don't let Charlie's former student and friend Antino Crowley-Kamenwati  fool you. He is one of the most interesting, sensitive and fascinating actors Charlie has ever taught. Antino's journey to becoming a well-trained professional actor is the subject of this incredibly personal episode. Charlie and Antino discuss how he survived two years in prison, a career as a porn star, his provocative performance art, and overcoming a difficult childhood as a young gay teen.  You can follow CBP on Instagram @creatingbehavior, and Charlie's NYC acting conservatory, the Maggie Flanigan Studio @maggieflaniganstudio.
