Antonio (Tony) Neville, Comedian

Antonio Neville is a well-known comedian, actor, and content creator from Rocky Mount. In Tony’s presentation, he will take you on his comedic journey from youth to young adulthood. You will learn all about perseverance, determination, and drive as Tony takes you along his multiple attempts to find his true calling: making people laugh through his life experiences. From trying to mimic family as a young kid, starting his college’s first comedy club (with three members), serving at restaurants to make ends meet, going “viral” on social media, and auditioning for acting roles, you are sure to leave inspired to find your passion through your trials!
