Lend Me a Tenor, set in 1934, opens with the producers of the Cleveland Grand Opera Company awaiting the arrival of guest singer Tito Morelli, hailed as the greatest operatic tenor of his time. Tito, anointed by fans as “II Stupendo” is scheduled to perform the title role in a gala performance of Giuseppe Verdi’s Otello. A chain-reaction of plot twists and double entendres continue to unfold and then remanifest as the call time for the sold out performance of Otello beckons.
Tickets are currently on sale at the NA Senior High
(NASH) ticket office, 10375 Perry Highway, Wexford. For ticket or
general information, please call 724-934-7288.
