D'Aquila's screenplay, Not Before Me (based on his stage play, Uptown) was purchased by Concord/New Horizons with D'Aquila attached to star. Kenny's recent work, Unorganized Crime, caught the eye of Oscar nominee Chazz Palminteri, who went on to perform the play with Kenny and Elizabeth Rodriguez at the World Premiere in Los Angeles.
