Based on Chazz Palminteri’s critically acclaimed one-man play that inspired the classic Robert DeNiro-directed film, “A Bronx Tale” is a streetwise musical comedy that transports 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.
“A Bronx Tale” is directed by The REV’s Producing Artistic Director, Brett Smock. He is joined by Choreographer Elle May Patterson and Music Director Logan Medland. Ben Kapilow is the Assistant Music Director. Additional members of the “A Bronx Tale” creative team include: Scenic Designer Milo Bue, Lighting Designer José Santiago, Sound Designer Sun Hee Kil, Costume Designer Tiffany Howard, Hair & Makeup Designer Rueben D. Echoles, Props Designer Marshall Pope, and Fight/Intimacy Director Christopher Elst. The Production Stage Manager is Mollie Heil with Assistant Stage Managers Charlotte Teplitz and Melanie Attuil. The Casting Director for The REV’s 2026 season is Megan Larche Dominick, CSA.
The principal cast of “A Bronx Tale” features Trevor James as Calogero, Mike Keller as Sonny, Alan Chandler as Lorenzo, Arjaye Christina as Jane, and Alison Mahoney as Rosina. Central New York natives Benjamin DeBenedetto and Rhys Natoli will split performances as Young Calogero.
Also featured are Jackson Barnes as Eddie Mush, Nathan Wright as Jojo, Bobby MacDonell as Frankie Coffeecake, Jon Christiano as Rudy the Voice, Aaron Lake as Tony Ten to Two, and Miracle Myles as Tyrone.
