The Ayden Community
Theater group presents...
Ken Ludwig's hilarious
"LEND ME A TENOR"
April 18, 19, 25, & 26
beginning at 7:00PM
Doug Mitchell Auditorium,
Ayden Community Center
4354 Lee Street, Ayden, NC
The night is the biggest in
the history of the Cleveland Gran Opera Company. World
famous tenor, Tito Morelli is to perform Otello, his
greatest role, at the gala season opener. Saunders, the
General Manager, hopes this will put Cleveland on the
operatic map. Morelli is late; when he finally sweeps
in, it is too late to rehearse with the company. Through
a hilarious series of mishaps, Morelli is given a double
dose of tranquilizers which mix with the booze he has
consumed and he passes out. His pulse is so low that
Saunders and his assistant Max believe he is dead.
What to do?
Max is an aspiring singer
and Saunders persuades him to get into Morelli's Otello
costume and try to full the audience into thinking he's
"Il Stupendo". Max succeeds admirably, but Morelli comes
to and gets into his other costume.
Now, two Otello's are
running around in costume and two women are running
around in lingerie, each thinking she is with "Il
Stupendo"!
