The Light in the Piazza is arguably one of the most highly anticipated theatrical events of the decade for serious Broadway theatergoers. The Los Angeles Times has already declared its creator, Nonesuch artist Adam Guettel, 'a composer for the new century,' on the strength of his two Off-Broadway productions, the 1996 Obie-Award winning 'folk musical' Floyd Collins and the 1998 song cycle, Myths and Hymns, TIME has described him as 'a startlingly original songwriter.' Few theatrical composers have been watched as closely as Guettel, and few musicals in the course of their development have generated so much substantial press or been praised so highly on the road as The Light in the Piazza. Both the New Yorker and The New York Times magazine devoted in-depth coverage to the evolution of Guettel’s sophisticated, deeply moving score. New Yorker critic John Lahr decided,'Guettel’s kind of talent cannot be denied. He shouldn’t change for Broadway; Broadway, if it is to survive as a creative theatrical force, should change for him.'
