Episode 53 w/ KING part 1!!

Please welcome Antonio Leroy King, aka "King!"

King currently plays Barry Belson, Hal Miller (and others) AND understudies Bob Crewe on the current National Tour of Jersey Boys!

King is the first Black man to play Bob Crewe on the National Tour. We believe King is the first Black man to play Bob Crewe in a Dodgers production in United States ever!

This episode was so amazing that we needed to make it a two-parter!

In part 1, follow us as we deep-dive into:

-How he got the name King!

-How his relationship with God strengthened him during the pandemic

-How his college experience shaped him into the man and performer he is today

-How educators can teach about Black influence in the arts to the future generations

And much, much more!

A’ Salud♥️🍷
