A Bronx Tale is a 2016 musical based on both the one man play and 1993 film of the same name. The original Broadway production's book is written by creator Chazz Palminteri with music by Alan Menken and lyrics by Glenn Slater. Robert De Niro, who also starred and directed the film, and Jerry Zaks co-directed.Taking place in the 1960s, the show is about a boy named Calogero who lives in Belmont, an Italian-American neighborhood in The Bronx. One day while sitting on his stoop, he witnesses the local mob boss Sonny shoot a man who was beating another with a baseball bat. Following the ethics of the street, Calogero refuses to rat to the police, which causes Sonny to take a liking to the kid, nickname him "C" and take him under his wing. This worries Calogero's straight-laced, working-class father Lorenzo, who believes this will lead him on the wrong path. As C grows up, he's caught between his two mentors and the growing racial unrest of the decade as he falls in love with a black girl from another neighborhood.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Described as a mix between Jersey Boys and West Side Story, the show features a score filled with music from the era including rock, doo-wop, and R&B.

Adaptation Expansion: The musical sheds more light onto why Lorenzo is always talking about wasted talent. Rosina reveals that Lorenzo was a talented saxophone player who dreamed of making it big, but had to give up his dream to support her after she got pregnant with C.
