Once Upon a Time in New Jersey: March 14–May 13, 2007

Once Upon a Time in New Jersey

Book and Lyrics by Susan DiLallo
Music by Stephen Weiner

Hilarious Musical Farce

An ordinary deli... not your ordinary hero! Sandwich slinger Vinnie loves counter girl Angie. Angie loves tough guy Rocco. Rocco's on the run from the mob. When Vinnie agrees to swap lives with Rocco for a week, he gets a chance at Angie... and much more than he bargained for. Swing back to 1956 New Jersey and the days of doo-wop, James Dean, poodle skirts, and pony tails in this rollicking and romantic, funny and tuneful new musical from award-winning authors, Weiner and DiLallo. Mistaken identities make for madcap fun, only in "Joisey!"

Listen to the Sounds of Jersey

"One of a Kind"
"Little Girl, Beware"
"Quando Scungilli"
