Tonight is the last opportunity to see “the Bridges of Madison County” at Festival 56’s Grace Theater at 7:30 pm. A show filled with beautiful music and outstanding acting, Bridges transports us to a time and place that many of us remember, infused with a hearty dose of the romantic. Here is a show with no bad guys, and you find yourself rooting for everyone, even though you know that choices must be made. Leading lady Elizabeth Butler is staying this summer with PAC’s own Shelley and David Gorenz. As Francesca, she and Robert give a heart wrenching performance. Don’t miss this great performance!
