Albanese Discusses New Play “The Last Days of Rockin’ Rob’s” on LIVE
Wednesday, June 13, 2018
Actor and producer Nick Albanese joined GoLocal News Editor Kate Nagle on GoLocal LIVE to talk about his new play, “The Last Days of Rockin’ Rob’s.”
According to Albanese, the play is loosely based on a true story of one of the last old school record shops left in Greenwich Village, NYC. The owner, Rockin’ Rob has been ill and sales are way down — and the drama is about the cast of characters trying to keep the dying business running. Albanese plays Bill, their “greedy landlord.”
Albanese also spoke to his two week run of “The Last Sicilian” off-Broadway and now writing the screenplay with hopes of turning it into a movie. This fall, Albanese will have a three-weekend run of the “Many Sides of the Reaper.”
