The 30-member cast of A Bronx Tale stars Tony Award nominee Nick Cordero (Waitress, Bullets Over Broadway) as Sonny, Richard H.

Based on the critically acclaimed play that inspired the now classic film, this streetwise musical will take you 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.
