Italian Bred: Candice Guardino's Comic Take on Growing Up Italian
- Full Price:
- $49.50
- Our Price:
- $25.00
This 80-minute one-woman show is filled with food, live music and hilarious characters as acclaimed writer/performer Candice Guardino shares her experiences growing up Italian on Staten Island. Having written down everything her lovingly outspoken grandmother ever uttered, Guardino kneads together these unfiltered bits of wisdom with her family's decidedly Italian (i.e., strong) personalities and a generous helping of childhood memories. Each week Guardino welcomes a different celebrity guest performer to assist with the storytelling. David Dabbon (Sondheim on Sondheim) conducts the live three-piece band. Learn More

Featured review from Vie Kaufman
view more less of this reviewI am very familiar with the history of the Tuskegee Airmen. This production was heartwarming and fact-based,-- something you could truly believe and be inspired by. It was both educational and entertaining. The cast gave very powerful performances –electrifying! I have sent
e-mails to about twenty friends. And, will share info at the office. Parents should take their teenage children to see it – it’s educational!

I knew I was in the midst of a learning experience but it was way more then that. I was enmeshed in a show the had my attention at all times. I left say ing over and over..."It was so good!"
star this review starred report as inappropriateIt can be amazing to witness in-person what great and heartfelt acting and direction and a compassionate writer and his well-researched theatre-piece can do to a live audience, with nary a multi-million dollar staging set-piece in sight.
An extraordinary evening of dramatically staged American history, brimming with humour, drama, the aforesaid compassion, and an unblinking eye towards how men become exemplars through a unique and quite Americam juxtaposition of time and place and war and, absolutely yes, race. See it twice-it's that good....
star this review starred report as inappropriateBefore buying tickets to see this performance I read all 13 of the reviews and was floored to see how all had given a perfect score. I had never seen that happen before on Goldstar. At the end of this performance it was obvious why.This show is amazing. The story and acting is absolutely riveting. At several points in the story I was moved to tears. This is a must see play. If you are visiting New York, do yourself a favor and go.
