With our opening night scheduled for May 13th the cast and crew have been working very hard to bring you another great memorable night of theater!

THE STORY

This night in September 1934 is the biggest in the history of the Cleveland Grand Opera Company—world-famous tenor Tito Morelli is to perform Othello, his greatest role at the gala season-opener. Saunders, the General Manager, hopes this will put Cleveland on the operatic map. When Morelli finally sweeps in it is too late to rehearse with the company and as usual through a hilarious series of mishaps all goes wrong. In true theatrical tradition, the show must go on!

THE CAST

With direction by CITG President, Nick Sala, Ken Ludwig’s LEND ME A TENOR features a cast of eight talented performers including CITG favorites Steven Bendler as Max the assistant to Saunders, Camille Kaiser as Julia the opera chairperson, Elizabeth Paldino as Diana the soprano, Susan Rauh as Maggie, Max’s girlfriend and Frank Siciliano as Tito Morelli. Joining them are CITG newcomers Jonathan Abbruzzese as the bellhop, Toni Fazio as Maria, Tito’s wife and Kevin Gordon as Saunders, the General Manager.
