Christiani will perform alongside Tony Award® nominee Nick Cordero (Bullets Over Broadway, Waitress), and Ariana DeBose (Hamilton, Pippin). A Bronx Tale is directed by Academy Award® winner Robert De Niro, who directed and starred in the 1993 film adaptation.

As stated on Longacre Theatre website: “Based on the one-man show that inspired the now-classic film, this streetwise musical takes it’s audiences 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.” Click here for more information on A Bronx Tale.
