Dorothy Chandler Pavillion
135 North Grand Avenue Los Angeles, CA 90012

The scene is set: Florence, summer 1953. American Margaret Johnson (Renee Fleming) and her daughter Clara (Dove Cameron) take in the wonder and awe of Florence. A fateful gust of wind whisks Clara's hat into the hand of a local dreamer...and it's love at first sight. But Clara isn't quite what she appears, and soon they must all confront a secret kept in the shadows for far too long.



Renee Fleming and Dove Cameron star in Adam Guettel's enchanting Broadway musical, which won six Tony Awards, including Best Original Score and Best Orchestrations. Two-time Tony winner Brian Stokes Mitchell makes his LAO debut as the debonair Signor Naccarelli.
