Meet the Composer and Orchestra of BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY
by A.A. Cristi
- Jul 27, 2017
"The Bridges of Madison County" captured the nation's attention in 1992 as a best-selling novel, then again in 1995 as a major motion picture. It is a compelling, two-time Tony Award-winning musical now on stage at Peninsula Players through August 13. "The Bridges of Madison County" is the touching story of Francesca, a lovely Italian woman who married an American soldier to flee war-ravaged Italy. She is looking forward to a rare four days alone on her Iowa farm as her family heads to the 1965 Indiana State Fair when ruggedly handsome, National Geographic photographer Robert Kincaid pulls into her driveway seeking directions. What happens in those next four days may very well alter the course of Francesca's life.
