Letters of Love

The main way Cyrano manages to give voice to his feelings and beliefs is through his letters. With them, he is able to find the courage to express his feelings to Roxanne like never before.

Letters are sincere and personal ways to express you’re love and appreciation for others. For the lobby display for Cyrano, I made a station for the audience to write letters to loved ones, as well as to place on a poster to show appreciation to the Cast and Crew. I was overjoyed with the response by the audience.

The following are quotes from some of our favorite letters received:

“It was wonderful! Thanks for a great performance!”

“Thank you for the great show. I loved it.”

“I love, adore, admire, worship, fawn over, and am smitten by this play!”

“You have moved me, as rarely has a performance moved me.”

“Thank you for having the courage to be yourself as you performed this play.”

“The message of the devotion of love and beauty beyond looks was so touching!”

“Today, I have seen (this) story told unlike ever before, and yet I am transported as I ever have been.”

“Thank you so much, you have inspired me to act to the best of my abilities”

We are grateful for the adoration and love of our audience members. Though our BYU production has come to a close, we are excited to continue sharing this story with elementary schools around Utah!

Meet the Cast - Rachelle Elbert & Jack Shapiro

July 26, 2022 12:00 AM
By Kristen Leinbach, Dramaturg As we continue to move through the rehearsal process, it still amazes how much we are learning from this show. Rachelle Elbert and Jack Shapiro, members of the ensemble, shared the following about their experiences with the show... "The Light in the Piazza has been an escape for me (Rachelle Elbert). Being surrounded by beautiful music, passionate characters and actors, and the vivacity of the Italian culture has provided an insight into a whole new world that soothes the heart and soul. I have had the chance to experience both the bold Italian life and the sweet southern innocence as an ensemble member and Clara's understudy. As I've discovered who Clara is, her light and purity has slowly peeled away the layers and walls that I've built up throughout my own life. I feel a new light in my life, a new found appreciation for the unknown, and find beauty and sympathy in the strangest of places. I have become more comfortable with vulnerability and free expression and it's literally the greatest feeling in the world. Being apart of the beautiful production Light in the Piazza has been emotionally and spiritually fulfilling, and has opened my eyes to a realm of theater I never knew before."
