ABOUT THE SHOW
Winner! 6 Tony Awards including Best Original Score!
A lush and soaring romance unfolds as Huntington Artistic Director Loretta Greco ("PRAYER FOR THE FRENCH REPUBLIC") creates a brand-new production of Adam Guettel’s sweeping Tony Award-winning score and Craig Lucas’ profound book in this must-see story of a mother, a daughter, and the many meanings of love.
Florence, Italy in the summer of 1953.
Protective American mother Margaret Johnson brings her daughter Clara abroad for a glimpse of Italy’s romantic history.
But when a real-life attraction sparks between Clara and a local boy, Margaret must ask: can she reconcile her own hopes with her daughter’s future?
