Maryann Maisano headliner and producer of THE ITALIAN CHICKS COMEDY & VARIETY SHOW was a former VP, sales coach, marketing and branding...

As a child, every Sunday in her home was like bad Italian dinner theater. They all came over in droves. One day, after dinner and before cannolis, she got up on the dining room chair and sang!!
That was it! At five years old she knew exactly what she wanted to be when she grew up. A performer!
That was a blessing and a burden….

Maryann made her living for many years as a performer, but questioned her own mortality in the business. Her Italian father made her think about it. “Marianna! Whenna you gonna getta da real job?”
She began to think… “The last thing I want to do is end up being 65 years old, singing misty in the Poconos in a sequined gown.”

She got a real job and became successful by accident! As a BANKER! Maryann continued to multitask performance and banking.
Her prestigious career culminated as VP of a major financial institution. However, one day – in 2006 - the “suits” got to her. She just conducted what would be her last seminar on how to follow your passions. She left her 6-figure income behind to follow her passion.

She treated herself as a business plan and developed a 3-phase plan on marketing and branding her.
Phase one: create a CD of original compositions and sell on iTunes.
Phase two: Create an all female, all Italian comedy and variety show that supported the traditions and culture.
Phase three: Write a one woman show titled " The Agita Monologues."

Maryann completed recording her debut cd of original compositions. She is a compelling, provocative and lyrical songwriter. “Her music and her voice are a woven piece of velvet - rich in abstract hues of red.” The consummate musician, all music and vocals are written and performed by Maryann Maisano. The song "City of Light" was recorded by Danny Aiello, the actor and was released on his new CD, Bridges and was nominated for a Grammy.

The ITALIAN CHICKS was established and has performed all over the USA and Canada. Danny Aiello also endorses the show.
