{"product_id":"my-italy-story-and-long-joseph-gallo-9781944540180","title":"My Italy Story and Long Gone Daddy: Two Plays","description":"MY ITALY STORY - Spurred by visits from his grandmother's ghost and by pleas from his cousin Louie to help get the family back together, Thomas DaGato quits his job as a New York account executive, and travels to the tiny Italian village of his ancestors - Vallata. It's not until he comes home, however, that he discovers a secret that unlocks his past. MY ITALY STORY originally opened Off-Broadway at the 47th Street Theatre, and was nominated for the Gay Talese Literary Prize. LONG GONE DADDY is the follow-up to Gallo's critically acclaimed Off-Broadway solo play My Italy Story (\"...a compelling page turner.\"- New York Times). Checking-in with his alter-ego, Thomas DaGato - LONG GONE DADDY chronicles the comic misadventures of becoming a stay-at-home father. From Bruce Springsteen concerts to OBGYN appointments to the Hoboken playgrounds and back again, Gallo's semi-autobiographical play also wrestles with the memory of his own Dad, a former fireman, and the existential question, \"When does a father earn the right to be called Dad?\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joseph Gallo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1944540180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781944540180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sordelet Ink\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/29\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.28d","brand":"Joseph Gallo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442708033791,"sku":"9781944540180","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d174c6ee-f92b-4931-85fb-e1098a8eb68e.jpg?v=1777199225","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/my-italy-story-and-long-joseph-gallo-9781944540180","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
