As A Bronx Tale opened on Broadway, under the direction of four-time Tony winner Jerry Zaks and Oscar winner Robert De Niro, the musical's cast took time to chat with TheaterMania about the world created by Chazz Palminteri, Alan Menken, and Glenn Slater, on Belmont Avenue. Starring Bobby Conte Thornton, Ariana DeBose, Nick Cordero, and more, the show is set against the backdrop of racial strife and organized crime in the 1960s. And, according to DeBose, it shares the lesson that "the choices you make will shape your life forever."
