  • A Bronx Tale
    A Bronx Tale Synopsis A Bronx Tale, a new musical set in the early 1960s, is based on the autobiographical play written by Chazz Palminteri. It tells the coming-of-age story of Calogero Anello, a young boy from a working class family who finds himself caught between his loving father and a charismatic mob boss. In Act One, Calogero witnesses Sonny, the mob boss, murdering someone right in front of his house on Belmont Avenue; Calogero covers for Sonny when questioned by the NYPD. Calogero’s father, Lorenzo, who is an MTA bus driver, wants to instill a strong sense of right and wrong in his son, but Calogero goes against his father’s wishes. After Sonny is released by the police with no charges against him, he takes Calogero under his wing and helps him get involved with the “glamorous” world of organized crime. Sometime later, Calogero is all grown up and a full prodigy of Sonny, but his father has no idea he has continued to see Sonny. Calogero has also developed a group of Italian- American friends that Sonny thinks is a bad influence over him and encourages Calogero to stick to his schoolwork. Calogero meets an African-American girl, Jane, on Webster Avenue which is a very different side of the Bronx than where Calogero lives. He asks his father for advice on what he should do when he and Jane go on a date. Calogero’s father doesn’t exactly approve of him going out with Jane because he is concerned for his son’s safety, considering the high racial tensions on the time period, but Lorenzo still gives him advice.

    A WORD FROM THE PRODUCERS Michael Holzer Jacque Carnahan One year ago, we came together at the Gershwin Theatre for the very first Arts for Autism concert. Dozens of Broadway actors joined more than 150 young performers to take part in a show that inspired, educated and entertained us. It was uplifting to see so many passionate artists collaborate to raise awareness, encourage acceptance and to celebrate the power of the arts. We also witnessed the Broadway debut of Gina Hitsos, a young singer with autism who found her voice through the magic of music. There was an infectious feeling of love, excitement and optimism as everyone left the theatre that night. After a year of planning and projects we are back! We have many new and exciting developments since last June. After debuting a special arrangement of “Defying Gravity” in last year’s concert, we released a music video to share the beautiful message with an even wider audience. In February, we ventured out to the Ice Plant Recording studios in Queens with three former Broadway Elphabas from Wicked to reimagine the song we know and love. You can find the video on our website at ArtsForAutism.net. In May, we joined Autism Speaks at MetLife Stadium for the Northern New Jersey Walk. We were thrilled to be there and show our support. Jacque and our talented musicians serenaded and entertained the walkers; it was wonderful to see firsthand the positive impact that music can have. Now it’s June, and here we are again at the Gershwin Theatre.

  • Keynote Address an Independent Study Richard Oberacker Composer and Music Director
    NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOLS OF THEATRE ANNUAL MEETING 2017 Keynote Address An Independent Study Richard Oberacker Composer and Music Director It seems traditional to open a lot of keynote addresses with a quote, usually a poem on the secrets of the universe. Maybe Shakespeare. I'm going to quote a restaurant owner. And I'm not even going to give him the dignity of an exact quote. I'm paraphrasing. Danny Meyer is the owner of Union Square Cafe, Shake Shack, many other restaurants, and one of the most successful hospitality consulting firms the world has ever known. A lot of publishers came after him to write the definitive book on hospitality management. He said—and here's the pseudo quote—I can't just write down some secret formula. But I'm willing to tell you the story of my life, the choices I made, what happened because of those choices, and if anything in there inspires someone to change their business approach to be more successful, then that's pretty cool. And that's what he did. The book is called Setting the Table, and I highly recommend it. It'll change your approach to all management situations, and you'll never look at eating in a restaurant the same way again. But this is theater. Lunch is later. When I was asked about speaking to a gathering of the greatest theater educators in our country, I thought, "What the hell are they thinking?" But my experience in college was unique. And what I do with it—how I view the world because of it—is also unique.

And then I went to breakfast with my daughter and told her about the nomination and she started screaming. This is a special show. It is not like any other show that has been on Broadway from what I know and different from any show I have been a part of in the past. I was hopeful people would "get it" and I think they did. We're a hard working cast and it's amazing to me that we can do as many shows as we do each week. Everyone pulls their weight and I expected us be noticed for the excellence. The highlight of this show for me is being in a cast people who are so dedicated. The music is great to listen to every night and we have a crew that is great to us.

    For Immediate Release Freddie McInerney, Director of Marketing and Communications 860.986.7466 / [email protected] Press photos available 7.28.17 at www.theaterworkshartford.org/event/raging-skillet www.theaterworkshartford.org Final Casting Announced For WORLD PREMIERE RAGING SKILLET By Jacques Lamarre directed by John Simpkins at TheaterWorks July 20 through August 27, 2017 Press welcome Thursday July 27, 2017 HARTFORD, CT – June 28, 2017 TheaterWorks (Rob Ruggiero, Producing Artistic Director) announced final casting today for RAGING SKILLET by Jacques Lamarre the 5th show of TheaterWorks 31st Season. Directed by John Simpkins, RAGING SKILLET is an irreverent but loving comedy about rebellion and searching for identity.

The play is adapted by Jacques Lamarre whose food-centric I LOVED, I LOST, I MADE SPAGHETTI was a hit for the theater several years ago and has since played at theaters across the country. STORYLINE: Rebel caterer Rossi is celebrating the launch of her new book THE RAGING SKILLET: The True Life Story of Chef Rossi with a party — and you're invited! Zany food, rocking music and funny stories are all on the menu. When her Orthodox Jewish mother arrives unannounced, a less-than-kosher Rossi finds herself out of the frying pan and into the fire in this hilarious and heartfelt new comedy. TheaterWorks Producing Artistic Director Rob Ruggiero said “Jacques is part of our TheaterWorks family.
