THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA — Broadway debut!!


Making his Broadway debut, Adam becomes the new male swing in THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA at Lincoln Center‘s Vivian Beaumont Theater.  He covers four of the ensemble roles, as well as the two principal roles of Fabrizio and Giuseppe Naccarelli.  THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA, based on the novella by Elizabeth Spencer, won 6 Tony Awards in 2005, including Best Score for composer/lyricist Adam Guettel.  The show tells the story of Margaret Johnson, an American mother who brings her daughter Clara on vacation to Italy.  When Clara falls deeply in love with a young Florentine named Fabrizio, Margaret must decide what to do about a romance that is not as simple as it seems.
