Archerio Mantovani aka Archie Easton: Archerio is Miguel’s protégé and graduate of the Havana School of Arts – a talented and inspired side kick who’s elevation from Cuban street performer to star has further secured Miguel’s international acclaim and notoriety.
Under his Uncle’s genuine but slightly misguided direction Archerio has become an understated and brilliant star - his innocence and naivety provides a quality that contrasts well with Miguel’s uber – confidence. Miguel keeps him in his place hierarchically - he is the ’original’ talent and has an ego to warrant it - Miguel, also has provided the stage for this talent to develop and both of them, in different ways, have capitalised on the success of their union. Their relationship is loving and competitive providing testosterone charged, exhilarating physical performance and slick slapstick banter.
Archie Easton is Archerio Mantovani, clown-like nephew of Miguel. He is the man behind the legendry grooves and moves and plays the perfect street-wise side kick to the old school but sharp Uncle Miguel. Mike and Archie’s characterisation of these characters is untouchable – the relationship portrayed is as real as the talent you witness. Over the years they have defined something so special that the synergy rides through every new characterisation they develop from 80’s finest throwbacks Barry Peters and Kevin to LA fitness gurus Guy Lordarie and Jacques Taurus.
