Tony's DiNapoli Time Square Restaurant hosted a party on Friday, October 15th to welcome Brooklyn to Broadway, and to celebrate co-writer Mark Schoenfeld's birthday.
Brooklyn, the Musical is a new Broadway production by Mark Schoenfeld and Barri McPherson with direction & musical staging by Jeff Calhoun and music supervision by John McDaniel. From the heart of Brooklyn comes a band of soulful street-corner singers and storytellers.
With a mix of pop and soul, they set their stage and tell a wondrous sidewalk fairytale about a young girl from Paris whose search for the father she never knew lands her in America, in the city that bears her name...BROOKLYN.
