Tony Azito
Tony Azito (July 18, 1948 – May 26, 1995) was an American eccentric dancer and character actor.〔 During his career, he was best known for comic and grotesque parts, which were accentuated by his lanky, hyperextended body.
==Training==
Azito was part of Juilliard's "Group I," the first students admitted to the drama program administered by John Houseman. His fellow students included Patti LuPone and Kevin Kline. Soon after arriving, Azito fell under the influence of choreographer Anna Sokolow and began studying modern dance — although, at six-foot-three (190 cm), Azito was an unusual candidate for dance training. (There was another dancer in the family: Azito's younger brother, Arturo Azito, performed with Eliot Feld and the Boston Ballet.) This newfound interest in dance aggravated Houseman, who was apparently anxious about the number of gay men in Group I and had already clashed with Azito over a cross-dressing incident.〔Houseman's hostility to Azito's dancing: Kevin Grubb, "The Eccentricities of Tony Azito," ''Dance Magazine'' 58 (Sept. 1984): 78; the cross-dressing and Houseman's desire to add more "strong, heterosexual boys" to the program: Andrea Olmstead, ''Juilliard: A History'' (Champaign, IL: University of Illinois Press, 1999), 228, ISBN 0-252-02487-7.〕 Partly as a result of his conflict with Houseman, Azito left Juilliard without taking a degree and, as "Antonio Azito," spent two years performing in Sokolow's company.
