MEET TONY…

Tony Diego Garcia (he/they) is a proud member of the Latinx (Mexican-American) and LGBTQIA+ communities, and an advocate for social change through art and storytelling. Born and raised in the Chicagoland area, Tony moved to Southern California at 16 and graduated from The School of Arts and Enterprise in Pomona, California, with a focus in Musical Theatre. He went on to earn an Associate’s degree in Theatre from Cypress College before receiving his B.F.A. in Musical Theatre from the University of California, Irvine.

Since graduating, Tony has performed across the country and at sea, bringing beloved stories to life with Tuacahn Amphitheatre and Disney Cruise Line. Aboard the Disney Wish, he was part of the Mainstage Cast, enchanting audiences with Broadway-style productions at sea. Most recently, he completed a contract on the Disney Magic as a Mainstage Performer, where he stepped into the roles of Maximus in Tangled: The Musical, Aladdin in Disney Dreams: An Enchanted Classic, and Jaq in Twice Charmed: An Original Twist on the Cinderella Story.

Tony’s love of performance began in childhood—between soccer games and building Lego sets, he found joy in creativity, imagination, and connection. Today, his greatest passion remains performing: using music, movement, and theatre to inspire, uplift, and change lives. Whether his next stage is in New York, Mexico, Chicago, or somewhere entirely unexpected, Tony will continue to follow the stories that need telling and the communities that need celebrating.
