People behind the production
Tales from the Tunnel is a compelling performer-driven production born from the streets of New York City. Created by Troy Diana and James Valletti, the show features six actors portraying nearly 100 subway stories drawn from real riders and observed moments aboard New York City’s transit system. After a FringeNYC appearance in 2009, the production moved to an Off-Broadway engagement at Theatres at 45 Bleecker Street in NYC, opening July 25, 2010 and closing October 3, 2010. While the show is currently listed as closed with no 2025 tour dates announced, its legacy continues through associated musical projects and recordings tied to Tales from the Tunnel material.
