    The Light in the Piazza

    Theatrical Outfit - The Balzer Theater at Herren's

    Book by Craig Lucas
    Music and Lyrics by Adam Guettel
    Based on the Novella by Elizabeth Spencer

    In 1953, Margaret Johnson of Winston-Salemis on holiday in Italy when dashing Fabrizzio falls fast for her daughter, Clara. As the courtship races, Margaret must reveal a family secret or summon the courage to consent to marriage. Themes of sacrifice, destiny and the effervescence of first love ripple through this lush period musical. Adapted from the novella by Elizabeth Spencer with a score by Adam Guettel (grandson of composer Richard Rogers), this winner of six Tony Awards transports audiences to sunshine-filled Tuscany and into the hearts of some of musical theatre’s most endearing characters.
