FIORELLO! tells the story of the rise to power of New York's "Little Flower," Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia (1882-1947). In a time when the crooked political machine known as "Tammany Hall" was up to its ears in graft, vice and corruption, it took this small, honest man to break their stranglehold on New York City politics. With guts and perseverance the "Little Flower" put a bright, new shine on the "Big Apple."
While most political musicals are satires, FIORELLO! is a love story set to the music and beat of a New York City in the midst of change. FIORELLO! is a witty sweet valentine to all that is right about the way our government works. The little man with the big heart continues to attract and charm audiences with his warmth and humor.
