I saw The Light in the Piazza yesterday! I loved it.
Victoria Clark wasn't there. I was upset at first but once the show began I forgot all about her. Her understdy, Patti Cohenour was really good though. She said it was only her second time in the show and she was really nervous. So I definitely give her credit. I loved loved loved Kelli O'Hara. I had seen her in Dracula last year around the same time(She was probably my favorite part of that show). She played the part so well and I love her voice. Matthew Morrison was great. He can sing to me in Italian(however bad it may be) anyday.
The costumes were gorgeous and I liked how the set flowed so well. I like the seating in the Vivian Beaumont Theater as well because I didn't have a big bald head in front of me blocking my view.
I think the audience was one of the best behaved audiences I've ever seen. Of course that may be because it was mainly older people. My friends and I were definitley the youngest people there. It's not like CHitty where probably more than half the audience is under the age of 7. It was nice.
All in all I loved the show and I just wrote a really bad review of it. I just rambled on and on. Oh well.
The picture is all of us with Patti.
Seriously, I haven't seen her go on as Margaret but I have a mini obsession with her b/c of "aiutami". It'd be really great to catch her go on for Victoria at least once.
