*About the play*

This play the second theater production written by Jason Robert Brown
presented this year at Lakeland and is also the Northeast Ohio local
premier. The story, set on a quiet farm in America’s heartland, is about an
Italian war bride who is living life as an average Iowan housewife until a
National Geographic photographer knocks on her door. He is seeking
directions to the area’s historic bridges and she offers to ride along with
him to find them. As they travel to the various locations for the photo
shoots, an unexpected, yet powerful connection grows. And so begins a
sweeping romance between soul mates that ultimately leads to the struggle
between longing and commitments as well as questions in life about the
roads traveled, the doors opened and the bridges crossed.



The play is directed by* Dr. Martin Friedman *with settings and lights by*
Trad A Burns, *costumes by* Tesia Benson, *and all under the musical
direction of* Jordan Cooper. *Featured performers are *Trinidad Snider,
Amiee Collier, Anna Barrett, Brian Altman, Shane O’Neill and Scott
Esposito. *
