MAINSTAGE • OCTOBER
7 - NOVEMBER 1, 2009
BOOK & LYRICS BY TOM JONES
MUSIC BY HARVEY SCHMIDT DIRECTED BY AMANDA DENHART Luisa and Matt are entering the bloom of their youth — the world stands open to them, inviting them to explore. Their fathers, scheming to encourage their budding love, build a wall between the teens, hiring the trickster El Gallo to “thwart” their romance. By moonlight, Matt and Luisa fall hard for each other. When finally the couple comes together in the light of day, they must decide between the comfort of illusion and the wisdom that only comes with experience. Can their romance survive the sunlight? |
