In 2002, his two character play about Tennessee Williams and Anna Magnani, titled "Roman Nights", premiered Off-Broadway at the Daryl Roth 2 Theatre in Union Square, produced by Suzanne Corso. The New York premiere production received respectable critical and commercial success for the writer. This three-act play went on to be produced in London in 2004, and again in Prague in 2006, where it has since been on a six-year sold-out tour of Eastern Europe. In 2011 the play opened in Buenos Aires as "Noches Romanas" under the direction of Oscar Barney Finn; and that year it was also performed in France, Italy and Spain as part of various international Tennessee Williams centenary celebrations. In 2011 the playwright created an alternate, shorter production version of that play entitled "Tenn & Anna". In November 2011 Eva Minemar directed Italian actress Lidia Vitale in "Solo Anna" a new one-woman play D'Alessandro wrote which draws from his years of researching and writing about Anna Magnani; it played again to sold-out crowds in Los Angeles and Rome in 2012 and under the direction of Minemar it hopes to come to the New York stage in 2012 and tour in 2013. "Roman Nights" has also been adapted into a screenplay but the feature film is unproduced.
