Way back in the autumn of ‘82 after watching and drawing inspiration from the Steven Spielberg film “E.T.,” a Brooklyn-born Jewish sage by the name of Neil Leslie Diamond advised the world to “turn on your heartlight.” Those simple-yet-elegant words from that top 10 hit record still resonate with lovers of the arts, particularly at springtime when nature reawakens and the cultural scene seems to roar back to life. (Case in point: the Neil Diamond show “A Beautiful Noise,” which will be presented at The Hippodrome Theater this summer, touching you, touching me.)
