The Light in the Piazza

The Library’s ninth season of Script-in-Hand performances, featuring the Metropolitan Ensemble Theatre concludes with The Light in the Piazza. This dreamy, Tony-winning musical revolves around wealthy Margaret Johnson and her beautiful but emotionally stalled teenage daughter, Clara, who spend a summer together in the Tuscan countryside. When Clara falls in love with an earnest, dashing, and passionate young Italian, a protective Margaret must decide what to do with a secret from the girl’s past — which could take romance off the table — while confronting her own deep-seated hopes and regrets. The Script-in-Hand series is underwritten by Country Club Bank. A reception, provided by Cosentino’s Market, follows for members of the Friends of the Kansas City Public Library. Guests who are not members may join at the door.
This event is co-sponsored by: Metropolitan Ensemble Theatre
