BIO

Mario Cantone is an American comedian, writer, actor, and singer with numerous appearances on Comedy Central including Chappelle's Show. He also played Anthony Marentino on Sex and the City. His style is fast-paced and energetic, with much of his humor coming from his impersonations of various characters ranging from his family members, to celebrities, to stereotypes.

An accomplished stage actor, his Broadway debut was replacing Nathan Lane in the role of Buzz in Terrence McNally's Tony Award-winning dramatic comedy, "Love! Valor! Compassion!" For the Public Theater on Broadway, Canone played Stephano in Shakespeare's "The Tempest." Off-Broadway in Shakespeare in the Park, he played Grumio in "Taming of the Shrew." Also Off-Broadway he was Terry in the original cast of "The Crumple Zone" and Benny in "June Moon."
