Anthony has finished his role as "Wesley" in the Shakespeare Theatre's production of the Pulitzer Prize-winning drama "The Time of Your Life". Show ran September 2007. The Home News Tribune wrote "Gregory Derelian as Nick the bartender, Blake Hackler as Harry the dancer, Sal Cacciato as Dudley the lovesick suitor, and Anthony Stokes as Wesley the out-of-work piano player fit their roles nicely."
