Synopsis
The night in September of 1934 is the
biggest in the history of the Cleveland Grand Opera Company. World famous
tenor, Tito Morelli, is to perform his greatest role, Otello, at the gala
season opener. Saunders, the General Manager, hopes this will put Cleveland
on the operatic map. Morelli is late and when he finally sweeps in it is too
late to rehearse with the company. Through a hilarious series of mishaps, Il
Stupendo is given a double dose of tranquilizers in some booze he has
consumed. 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 fool the
audience into thinking he's Il Stupendo. Max succeeds admirably, but Morelli
comes to and gets into his other costume. Now two Otellos are running around
in costume and two women are running around in lingerie, each thinking she
is with Il Stupendo! A sensation on Broadway and in London's West End, Lend
Me a Tenor is guaranteed to leave you teary eyed with laughter.
