Antonio Sacre’s tales of growing up bilingually in a Cuban and Irish-American household have inspired audiences worldwide to gather their own family stories and become storytellers themselves. His stories have been published in award-winning books and audio recordings and some are now being developed for film and television. His unique views on everything from growing up as a self-described “Leprecano” (a tongue-in-cheek mash up of his Latino and Irish roots) to moving to L.A. after his Hollywood hopeful girlfriend are inspiring, often hilarious, and always honest.
Calling himself “the most successful storyteller you’ve never heard of,” Antonio has performed for 25 years, in 13 countries and 45 states, for over 3 million people. His educational outreach has been instrumental in the lives of thousands of young people who grow up bilingually and strive to reconcile their multi-cultural heritage with their American identity.
