Passion is a one act musical adapted from Ettore Scola’s film Passione d’Amore, itself adapted from the novel Fosca by Iginio Ugo Tarchetti. Set in Risorgimento-era Italy, the plot concerns a young soldier and the changes in him brought about by his obsessive love of Fosca, his Colonel's homely, ailing cousin. Passion is notable for being one of the few projects that Stephen Sondheim himself conceived (along with Sweeney Todd and Road Show). After opening on Broadway in 1994, it was nominated for 10 Tony Awards, winning four, including Best Musical.
Scenic and sound designs are by James Esposito, lighting design is by Cici Mao, and costume design is by Shon LeBlonc. Intimacy director is Mary Zastrow, and stage manager is Mara Aguilar.
