The lush, romantic, soulful musical has a book by Craig Lucas, based on the novella by Elizabeth Spencer, and music and lyrics by Adam Guettel (he won the 2005 Tony for Best Score and shared the Best Orchestrations Tony). Bartlett Sher directs, and the original design team will re-imagine the scenic elements for proscenium houses on the tour (the Beaumont is a modified thrust space with acres of depth, a luxury rare on the road).

Full casting for the tour has not been officially announced, but some members of the current company are expected to appear in the national tour. Elena Shaddow, seen on Broadway in The Woman in White, will play the role of Clara, according to the actress' website.

The Light in the Piazza tells the 1950s-set story of a North Carolina mother, Margaret, on holiday in Italy with her sensitive daughter, Clara. Margaret searches her heart when Clara falls in love with an Italian boy, Fabrizio, in Florence. Themes of parental responsibility, letting go, holding on, the nature of marital love and the joy of true love percolate like espresso in the rarefied romantic musical. The Broadway production of Piazza — starring Tony Award winner Victoria Clark — will end its run at the Beaumont July 2.
