This
feel-good New York musical, with a rock and bluesy score by Oscar and
Tony winner Alan Menken (LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS,
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST) retells Chazz Palminteri’s
story of growing up in the 1960s in an Italian-American neighborhood
in the Bronx.
The show
stars native Jersey boy Mike Keller as Calogero,
with his younger self played by Virginia-based young actor Hudson
Koonce. Sonny, the neighborhood boss, is played by another native
Jersey guy Mike Keller, film and TV actor known for ON
THE ROCKS, HUSTLERS, GIRL MOST LIKELY, BLUE BLOODS, and THE BLACKLIST.

The show is
being directed by Broadway veteran Richard H. Blake, whose
15 shows on Broadway include A BRONX TALE, WICKED, JERSEY BOYS,
and LEGALLY BLONDE.
Like all
theaters in NYC, the Axelrod PAC requires patrons to present proof of
vaccination and to wear masks while in the arts center. Patrons
should feel confident that the theater’s ventilation system is fully
upgraded and we are abiding by all Covid precautions required by the Actors’
Equity Association and the NJ Theater
Alliance.
