Description
Proscenium Players is proud to present, Ken Ludwig's Lend Me a Tenor
World-renowned tenor Tito Merelli has signed on to perform in Verdi's opera 'Pagliacci' at the Cleveland Grand Opera Company in the fall of 1934. He arrives late and, through a set of crazy circumstances, passes out after mixing wine with a huge dose of tranquilizers. Believing that Tito is dead, the excitable opera manager taps his hapless assistant, an aspiring singer named Max, to suit up as the clown of tragedy and replace Merelli. Meanwhile, Merelli's jealous wife, his ambitious female co-star, Max’s young girlfriend and the flirtatious head of the opera guild are on the scene fighting—sometimes literally—for the star’s attention.
This show will run from August 2-3 at the Black Box Theatre of the Quad Cities in Moline, IL
