Photo Flash: First Look at THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY at Manatee Performing Arts Center

By: Feb. 07, 2017

The Bridges of Madison County, one of the most romantic stories ever written, is now an irresistible, two-time Tony Award-Winning Broadway musical. This stunning new production features gorgeous, soulful music by Tony Award-Winning composer Jason Robert Brown (Parade, The Last Five Years) that draws upon the rich textures of Americana and folk and the sweeping, expressive balladry of classic Broadway. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action at Manatee Performing Arts Center below!

With a book by Pulitzer Prize Winner Marcia Norman (The Secret Garden, The Color Purple), the production is directed by Kathy Pingel, music directed by Thomas Guthrie, and choreographed by Vanessa Russo, with set design by Donna Buckalter, lighting design by Ryan E. Finzelber, costume design by Becky Evans and stage management by Tiffany Smith.

Based on the best-selling novel by Robert James Waller, The Bridges of Madison County tells the story of Iowa housewife Francesca Johnson and her life-changing, four-day whirlwind romance with traveling photographer Robert Kincaid. It's an unforgettable story of two people caught between decision and desire, as a chance encounter becomes a second chance at so much more.
