The Bridges of Madison County

Pittsburgh in the Round: If you’ve been living under a theatrical rock in Pittsburgh for the last several years or you haven’t yet seen Carnivale Theatrics’ dazzling production of The Bridges of Madison County, it may seem like one of those pairings is not like the others. Sure, Caroline Nicolian and David Toole’s shelves are not yet fully stocked with Oscar and Tony gold like the shelves of those other twosomes. Still, I compare them to those greats not just because they’ve all taken on the roles of Francesca Johnson and Robert Kincaid created by Robert James Waller for his best-selling novel of the same name, but also because they are just that good.
