A Comedy of Tenors by Ken Ludwig, a sequel to Lend Me A Tenor, features a cast of characters involved in the chaos surrounding a performance, described as the biggest concert in the history of Opera. One hotel suite, four tenors, two wives, three girlfriends, and a soccer stadium filled with screaming fans. What could possibly go wrong? It’s 1930s Paris and the stage is set for the concert of the century – as long as producer Henry Saunders can keep Italian superstar Tito Merelli and his hot-blooded wife, Maria, from causing runaway chaos. Prepare for an uproarious ride, full of mistaken identities, bedroom hijinks, and madcap delight. The play will be directed by Diana Canova.
