The Jefferson Performing Arts Society is kicking off the new year in their new facility by reprising an old favorite, "The Light in the Piazza." The show was a big hit for JPAS in 2012, winning five Big Easy Awards, including best musical, despite only running for a single weekend at Tulane University's Dixon Hall. When the new multi-million dollar Jefferson Performing Arts Center opened last year, JPAS executive and artistic director Dennis Assaf knew he wanted to include an encore production of the show in the 2015-16 season.
