chuck robinson

Improv comedy is in Chuck's blood. Born literally off-Broadway in New York while his parents chased short-lived theatre dreams in the late 70's, Chuck grew up going to his dad's late night Comedy Sportz shows. He was tap-dancing by age three and has acted in many cheesy theatre in the park musicals with (or directed by) his mom, who teaches collegiate theatre. Throughout his childhood, Chuck honed his bits by clowning in front of his mute brother and deaf cousins, who always laughed uproariously (so we're told).

By high school, Chuck turned into the nasty stage whore we know and love, singing, dancing and acting his way into every show, much to the chagrin of classmates who elected him "Most likely to sucker-punch a director." After burning out in traditional theatre, Chuck moved to the Alamo City in 1998 and found his way to the Oxys by 2001. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Communication Arts and Psychology from The University of the Incarnate Word.

A self-proclaimed Wiccan, Chuck still scares the rest of the cast each time he sacrifices a crow before a show (don't call PETA, Chuck's hardcore and he'll cast a spell on your ass).
