Based on the internationally acclaimed play of the same title, "Roman Nights" has been produced or performed in over a dozen countries and translated into eight languages since its New York debut in 2002. America's most acclaimed playwright and Italy's greatest actress forge a unique and enduring 25-year friendship; a fascinating study of the artist and muse paradigm and would inspire several theatrical master works: "The Rose Tattoo", "Orpheus Descending" (written for Magnani) as well as "Sweet Bird of Youth" and "The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore". From the sparks of their first encounter in 1948 to the origins of "The Rose Tattoo", the story travels through their inspired years and Oscar glory of the 1950's through the chaos and critical savagery of the1960's -through love, loss and betrayal- with only their unique friendship as the life-raft to which they both would cling.
