Winner of 3 Tony Awards and 4 Drama Desk Awards, Lend Me A Tenor takes place inside a two-room hotel suite in Cleveland, Ohio in September 1934. Saunders, the general manager of the Cleveland Grand Opera Company, is primed to welcome world-famous singer Tito Merelli, known as Il Stupendo and the greatest tenor of his generation, to appear for one night only as the star of the opera. When Tito arrives late, however, and through a hilarious series of mishaps appears to have died, the employees’ frantic attempt to salvage the evening leads to disguises, love affairs, mistaken identities, and all of the comedic mayhem that playwright Ken Ludwig is famous for. Called “one of the classic comedies of the 20th century” by critics and audiences since its debut over 30 years ago, Lend Me A Tenor is a rollercoaster of fun that will leave you teary-eyed with laughter.
