BrightSide Theatre presents THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY

One of the most unforgettable romantic stories ever written that first captured the nation’s attention as a best-selling novel, then became an award winning film, is now an irresistible, two-time Tony Award® winning Broadway musical.  Francesca Johnson, a beautiful Italian woman who married an American soldier to flee war-torn Italy, looks forward to a few days alone on her Iowa farm when her family heads to the 1965 State Fair. When ruggedly handsome National Geographic photographer Robert Kincaid pulls into her driveway seeking directions, a chance encounter becomes a four-day whirlwind romance caught between decision and desire – offering a second chance at so much more.  This sweeping romance about the roads we travel, the doors we open and the bridges we dare to cross will leave audiences breathless.
