Brick Road Theatre will present The Light in the Piazza, only the second time the musical has been produced in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Written by Adam Guettel, the grandson of Richard Rodgers (one-half of Rodgers and Hammerstein), the show centers around a vacation love story and the challenges that come from it.
Summer 1953: Margaret Johnson, an elegant and strong-willed Southern woman, has taken her daughter, Clara, on a vacation to Italy. When a gust of wind blows Clara’s hat right into the hands of a young Italian gentleman, neither age nor language nor familial disapproval can stop their whirlwind love affair. As Clara and Fabrizio fall into each others’ arms, Margaret must grapple with the question of whether to disclose Clara’s devastating secret to Fabrizio’s warm, passionate Italian family.
With soaring operatic melodies that set it apart from most contemporary musical theatre, The Light in the Piazza is a story about mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, and the deeply intertwined emotions of love and loss.
