Sometimes history repeats itself. On a balmy Saturday night in Florida, Academy Award Nominee and Broadway Legend Chazz Palminteri (A Bronx Tale, Modern Family, Godfather of Harlem) attended a performance of Comedian/Playwright Peter Fogel's hilarious auto-biographical solo show. Palminteri was truly impressed. And just like the Legendary Robert Deniro discovered Chazz Palminteri 30 years earlier -- Palminteri discovered Peter Fogel and offered --on the spot -- to direct his solo show!

ANNIE at PPAC is a Delightful Dose of Nostalgia
by Andria Tieman - February 01, 2023
It’s always nerve-racking to revisit a show as an adult that was so important to you as a kid. I can’t even count how many times I saw the movie ANNIE as a kid; and it also holds the place in my memory of being the first touring Broadway musical I ever saw. So this production playing at PPAC through February 5th has some big shoes to fill, but I’m happy to report that the exceptional cast, classic songs and fantastic sets made this a magical night. All the favorite songs and scenes are comforting and exciting, but watching with adult eyes made this feel new but still resonant.
