Italians do it tastier: “Ciao Bambino-The Musical” is back, starring Italian American actor Andrea Galata
Posted by: Official_Press_Release 05:25 pm EDT 04/05/18

“It feels good to be Italian... I want to be in Italy”… and who can take you there better than
an Italian actor like Andrea Galata? Music, fun, love and family matters - that is Ciao
Bambino – The Musical, debuting April 8th at the 13th Street repertory Theatre with three
dates that already sold out.

Awarded as "Best Staged Reading" at the 2016 Midtown International Theatre Festival in
New York City, Ciao Bambino is an original play by Liz Turner with music composed by
Andrea Haberlin, and is the story of Elizabetta, an Italian girl coming to New York City.

Love, dreams and the pursuit of a better life are at the center of the story of this young girl
(played by Turner herself), who, through the support of her family (uncle Salvatore, played
by Galata, and aunt Giuseppa, Ellen Jenders) and the love of the community growing
around her, Elizabetta will find love, happiness and a way to fully live her passion for music
in the Big Apple.

Ciao Bambino, a new 1950's Italian-American Musical, is an original family-friendly show filled with the
sounds of the Mediterranean, to celebrate and acknowledge the accomplishments and struggles of
Italian-Americans and their path to a new life in New York City during the 1950's.

I love a press release that contradicts itself multiple times. (NM)
