Like a beautiful painting Adam Guettel's The Light in the Piazza is a true work of art. With discordant music not unlike that of Stephen Sondheim, written for a small chamber orchestra, feelings of love - from all kinds of people -fuel passionately. Without the right actresses to play the American mother and daughter visiting Florence, the play loses its fragility and inner beauty. This production could not be more divine. Patti Cohenour as Margaret Johnson and Erin Mackey as her decidedly different daughter make sparks fly with their glorious acting and singing.
Truly one of the most elegant, though underrated musicals of the new century, THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA---now on stage in a lovely new production at South Coast Repertory in Costa Mesa through February 23---follows the uneasy journey that a loving, though over-protective mother must embark on when her daughter discovers the wonderfully vulnerable world of adult love. Filled with a gorgeously sweeping score by Adam Guettel and an insanely talented cast, this Italian journey surely ranks as one of the best, most attractive musicals SCR has mounted in recent years.
An Italian vacation, young love and a parent's heart-rending decision are all part of the award-winning Broadway hit, The Light in the Piazza, book by Craig Lucas, music and lyrics by Adam Guettel, and based on the novel by ElizaBeth Spencer. Directed by Kent Nicholson, The Light in the Piazza runs today, Jan. 24-Feb. 23 on SCR's Segerstrom Stage.

Ah, yes. 2013 was indeed an outstanding year for theater in Southern California. Even better: Orange County---my home base---boasted some of the best shows, period---marking an exciting theater renaissance in brilliance and artistry that I hope continues to grow here inside L.A.'s next door neighbor. With that said, here is my Top 10 Stage Shows of 2013 from Orange County and adjacent locales nearby, followed by my picks for the year's best performances.

America's romantic piano sensation Jim Brickman comes to San Francisco's Nob Hill, for two unique performances presented by Bay Area Cabaret in the historic Venetian Room. The Grammy nominated pianist/songwriter will be joined on stage during his 5pm performance by Broadway heartthrob David Burnham, during which the two will perform songs from Brickman's current 'Love Tour,' including 'Romanza,' 'Love of My Life,' 'Dream Come True,' and more. For his 8pm solo performance, Brickman will perform a selection of his greatest hits, including 'Valentine,' 'If You Believe,' 'The Gift,' and many other fan favorites. Revolutionizing the sound of solo piano, Brickman currently holds the record for the most appearances by a male artist on Billboard's Adult Contemporary charts. His hugely popular radio program, Your Weekend With Jim Brickman, has been nationally syndicated since 1997 and on television he has recorded three of his own concert specials with PBS. Lauded for his performances as 'Fiyero' in the hit musical Wicked, and 'Fabrizio' in the original Broadway cast and national tour of Light in the Piazza, David Burnham has charmed critics and audience members alike, being called 'a knockout both visually and vocally' by The Miami Herald and 'joyously electric' by the San Francisco Chronicle.
