"Calogero Get's A New Nickname"
A video clip from Chazz's Broadway show!
NY POST Liz Smith Writes About the Show:
"GET THEE to the Walter Kerr Theatre for 90 minutes of the funniest, sweet est, most insane solo performance in town being given by Chazz Palminteri in "A Bronx Tale."
Once upon a time, Chazz was a doorman at nightspots in N.Y.C. and L.A. One night he was fired because he'd refused entrance to a short bald man with thick glasses. The man was powerful agent Irving Lazar, and it was Swifty's own party. So being fired, Chazz went to the Thrifty Drugstore where he bought paper and pencil and began writing his life story.
In 1993, Robert De Niro directed and acted - along with Palminteri - in the film version. Now Chazz, "live" onstage, is doing something else with his story. Incredible."
A NEW YORK CLASSIC COMES HOME.
Academy Award®-nominated actor Chazz Palminteri stars in his celebrated play, coming to Broadway for the first time, directed by four-time Tony Award® winner Jerry Zaks. In A BRONX TALE, the original play on which he based the legendary movie, Palminteri brings his classic coming-of-age story to vivid life, depicting a young boy's rough childhood in 1960s-era Bronx and the unforgettable people he encountered.
Young Cologio admires his devoted and hard-working father, Lorenzo, but when he strikes up a friendship with the dangerous but lovable local crime boss, Sonny, he's introduced to a whole new set of aspirations. Caught between the influences of two vastly different father figures, in a turbulent neighborhood on the brink of social change, "C" is forced to make difficult choices about friendship, love and family -- choices that can change his life forever.
A timeless story about reaching your true potential and trusting your heart, A BRONX TALE is both a highly-anticipated Broadway premiere and a long-awaited New York homecoming -- at the Walter Kerr Theatre for 18 weeks only!
