Chazz Palminteri will return to Broadway this fall in a limited engagement of A Bronx Tale, the one-man show he performed in Los Angeles and Off-Broadway in the late eighties that inspired the 1993 film of the same name.
Variety reports that Go Productions and Jujamcyn Theaters will produce the New York run, which is scheduled to begin Oct. 4 at the Walter Kerr Theatre. The 18-week engagement will officially open Oct. 25; Jerry Zaks directs.
In the solo show, which is a "semi-autobiographical tale about growing up in the Bronx," the actor plays 18 roles.
