Ruth. Berra. Mantle. DiMaggio. Gehrig. Jeter. The New York Yankees on Broadway. A night you’ll never forget! Bronx Bombers is a new American play from the team behind Broadway's Lombardi, starring Peter Scolari ("Bosom Buddies", "Newhart") as beloved icon Yogi Berra, as we follow Yogi and his wife Carmen through a century of the team's trials and triumphs, bringing generations of Yankee greats together on one stage. As it celebrates and explores the timeless legacy of baseball's most iconic team, Bronx Bombers takes a fascinating look at how and why the Yankees have remained so undeniably great... and so powerfully inspirational!
