Miracle on Mulberry Street Brings Joy to the Underworld

Miracle on Mulberry Street, a brilliantly conceived New York Mafia version of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. Replete with street folks and bawdy humor, the play delivers a new angle on the old magic.

John Pallotta pays homage to the redemptive value of the human soul by capitalizing on Dickens’ plot twists with a few creative sparks of his own. In this Italian crime version Scrooge is Scroogiano, the narcissistic Mafia boss whose only friend, the gnocci-sucking Marlianni comes back, cement shoes to boot, in order to warn the misanthrope of the horror that awaits him should he refuse to mend his ways. Meanwhile, Scroogiano’s nephew anticipates his first big break in Hollywood – a gig that Scrooge decided to sabotage. And there are plenty of others who have suffered at the hands of Scroogiano: namely, Cratchit, the impoverished and over-worked employee whose son is the handicapped Tiny Tony, as well as a long line of ex-wives and prostitutes who complain heavily of Scroogiano’s lack of empathy. But as in the original, the play offers a spiritual focus.
