Leaving music for a career in theatre and television, his work eventually led to a stint as an artist in residence at Cornell University.

Carlos is perhaps best known for starring in the show SAL, originally produced at the Climate Theatre in San Francisco then at the Zephyr Theatre in Hollywood. His portrayal of Sal Mineo, co-produced and co-written by him, received a Bay Area Theatre Critics Circle Award nomination for Best Solo Performance.

Since then, he has continued acting in television, both on-camera (Star Trek: The Next Generation) and in animation voice-over (Justice League, Spawn). He is especially proud of his work with director John Landis and alongside personal heroes Jerry Lewis, Harvey Fierstein and the late Dudley Moore.
