Cory Bowles (born August 27, 1973) is a Canadian actor, director and choreographer. He is best known for his portrayal of Cory in the series Trailer Park Boys.
Best known as Cory in Trailer Park Boys, he also is the principal choreographer of Halifax-based Contemporary Dance Company Verve Mwendo, plays in the rock band Aide-De-Camp and voices the children's series Poko. In the mid-1990s Bowles gained some prominence as MC of hip hop act Hip Club Groove, performing under the name "Chek Love". The group released an EP on No Records and later a full length on Murderecords. The group toured Canada, often opening for other Halifax based bands such as Sloan.
Bowles later formed a theatre company in 1997 with bandmate Joseph Wynne called The Good Companions. After closing down the company he went on to further his studies as a dancer and choreographer in Alberta.[citation needed]
Bowles received a Gemini Award for his work on Trailer Park Boys and ECMA nominations for music.[citation needed] His quirky choreography has turned up in music videos for artists such as Matt Mays and Jenn Grant.[citation needed]
Bowles left Trailer Park Boys after the sixth season in 2006 and continued to work in film, theatre and music at Bishop's University.[2] Bowles rejoined the cast of Trailer Park Boys in season 8 after the show was picked up by Netflix in 2013.
Bowles is an African-Nova Scotian with roots among Black Loyalists, Maroons and the original French Colonies. Bowles has travelled the globe studying the roots of Black dance and music, particularly through his own family line. Bowles has a strong passion for his cultural background and the storytelling traditions of the African Diaspora.
