The American Dream Musical
Based on the famous Sacco and Vanzetti trial, this musical drama, adapted by Neil Proto and Tony Giordano, is an intimate portrayal of the relationship between Nicola and his wife, Rosina, and their effort, with Bartolemeo Vanezetti and other immigrants, to embrace the principles,
the 'free idea' as they called it, that they believed America represented as they
and others sought a better life in America.
Underlying the story, and the eloquent power of the music by Brussels composer Dirk Brosse, is a struggle over America's principle beliefs in freedom and individual dignity and fairness.
