Lend Me A Tenor June 13th – 17th 2017 (7.30pm)

It’s a very important night for Henry Saunders — General Manager of the Grand Opera Company, Tito Mirelli, the world-famous Italian tenor, is set to perform the starring role in Otello. Henry Saunders is beyond stressed about everything turning out right, and insists that his assistant, Max — a nervous, young fellow and secret tenor — watch over Tito’s every move to ensure smooth sailing. After a huge fight with his fiery, Italian wife Maria, Tito receives a double dose of tranquilizers through a series of mishaps. Throw in Diana, an ambitious, female co-star; Maggie, Max’s giddy girlfriend; Julia, a flirty head of the opera guild; and a meddling bellhop fighting for Tito’s attention. Together, you have a recipe for comedic disaster. Max navigates the company through one catastrophe after the next — an angry wife, a death, crazy costumes, secret sex romps, and loads and loads of slamming doors and mistaken identities. Together, Max and Saunders must find a way to save the Opera Company’s big night in this classic farce.
