42nd Street Moon’s production of FIORELLO!
Based on the life of New York City’s legendary mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia, FIORELLO! features lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, and music by Jerry Bock and a book by Jerome Weidman and George Abbott.
“Given the divisiveness and bickering that has spilled out of Washington and into our homes, our workplaces, our churches, and everywhere else in our lives,” said 42nd Street Moon’s Executive Directors Daren A.C. Carollo and Daniel Thomas, “there couldn’t be a better time for a show like FIORELLO! Mr. LaGuardia was a man who never let political pandering or back-room deals get in the way of his determination to serve all of his constituents equally; to speak for those with no voice; and to fight for those with no strength. That this show won the Pulitzer speaks to the authors' ability to deliver a message of social justice while working within the confines of Golden Age musical comedy, and that message resonates just as strongly today. FIORELLO! is must-see viewing for fans of theatre, politics, history, or anyone who wishes for more idealism and less cynicism in our American discourse.”
“At a time of intense political polarization in our nation,” added Director Karen Altree Piemme, “it is exciting to have the opportunity to work on a show about an individual who was a champion of people in immigrant communities, supported women in the labor movement, and believed that true leadership meant stamping out political corruption and serving all members of our community equally. This story inspires us to be our better selves.”
