Roman actor. Martyred under Diocletian in 300. Performing in a skit to condemn Christianity he suddenly proclaimed his Christianity and was martyred for his Faith. One of several actor saints who had similar martyrdoms in various times and places. He was a mime, but we will not hold that against him.
