THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA

Book by Craig Lucas

Music & Lyrics by Adam Guettel

 

Florence. Summer 1953. American Margaret Johnson and her daughter Clara take in the wonder and awe of Florence. A fateful gust of wind whisks Clara’s hat into the hands of a local dreamer Fabrizio Naccarelli… and it’s amore at first sight. But Clara isn’t quite what she appears, and soon they must all confront a secret kept in the shadows for far too long. With a book by Craig Lucas and music and lyrics by Adam Guettel, the Broadway musical, "The Light in the Piazza" won six Tony Awards, including Best Original Score.
