“A Bronx Tale” premiered at the Tony Award-winning Paper Mill Playhouse to critical and popular acclaim in Spring 2016. “A Bronx Tale” opened on Broadway at the Longacre Theatre on Dec. 1, 2016, following previews from November 3. The show ended its Broadway run on Aug. 5, 2018, having played 700 performances and as the second longest-running show in the history of the Longacre Theatre.
Based on the one-man show that inspired the now classic film, this streetwise musical takes audiences to the stoops of the Bronx in the 1960s—where a young man is caught between the father he loves and the mob boss he’d love to be. Featuring an original doo-wop score, this is a tale about respect, loyalty, love, and above all else: family.
