BREAKDOWN

THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA

SEEKING:

MARGARET JOHNSON (Legit soprano ranging from G below middle C up to G#) Margaret is an upper middle class woman from Winston-Salem, NC via the early 1950's. She is warm & appealing with a dry and self-deprecating sense of humor. She is a good mother, although she appears overprotective and sometimes controlling. Any Ethnicity. Any body type.

CLARA JOHNSON (Legit soprano ranging from low A, strong belt/mix to high E with a nice ring) Her transition through the course of the story is her realization that she is different. Clara is utterly open and charming and always in the moment. In truth, Clara has the mental and emotional skills of a 12- year-old. People meeting her for the first time would be astonished to know this. She is composed and spontaneous...ladylike and playfully wry at times. She is the perfect young lady ala a Southern 1950's finishing school. Any Ethnicity. Any body type.

FABRIZIO NACCARELLI (Lyrical tenor to a high B) Fabrizio is a dazzlingly handsome Italian young man. He is innocent, pure and sweet. He speaks very little English. Most of his dialogue is in Italian and broken English. Charming, naive, warm, and genuine.

GIUSEPPE NACCARELLI (Baritone) Fabrizio's older brother. He only speaks Italian. He is married to Franca but pursues other women. He is not terribly bright, but certainly manages to live his life the way he wants to.

FRANCA NACCARELLI (Legit Soprano) Franca is Giuseppe's passionate wife. She loves Giuseppe but he makes her unhappy much of the time.

SIGNOR NACCARELLI (Baritone) Fabrizio's father. Signor Nacarelli is Fabrizio's father. He owns a clothing shop in Florence. He is very smooth and speaks English very well.

SIGNORA NACCARELLI (Legit Soprano) She is Fabrizio's mother. She appears to be the dutiful, traditional Italian wife and mother but she has her own thoughts about everything. She primarily speaks Italian.

ROY JOHNSON (Baritone) Margaret's husband. He is an executive with a tobacco company in Winston-Salem, NC. He is emotionally unavailable and cool. He should have a southern accent. NOTE: Please sing Ensemble side.

ENSEMBLE- Strong ensemble will be needed. Will play The Priest, the Tour Guide, etc.
