Main Event - Chazz Palminteri in Atlantic City

Who Is He: Chazz Palminteri is bringing his one-man show to Atlantic City. Palminteri wrote "A Bronx Tale" in 1990 and performed it in Los Angeles. It was then brought to New York to be performed off-Broadway and finally adapted into a film in 1993 starring Palminteri and Robert DeNiro. The film launched Palminteri's film career, leading to roles in "The Usual Suspects," "Analyze This" and "Bullets Over Broadway."

What To Expect: The show is based on Palminteri's life as a young boy growing up in New York City. Palminteri portrays 18 different characters, including his bus driver father and Sonny, a local mob boss he befriends. The show deals with the different issues he dealt with, like racism, and experiences he shared with these people that influenced him and helped him grow up to be a man.

Event Info: The show begins at 8 p.m. in the Concert Venue at Harrah's Resort in Atlantic City. Tickets are $40, $55 and $65 and can be purchased at Harrah's box office or through Ticketmaster at 800-736-1420 or www.ticketmaster.com
