Lend Me a Tenor

The Star Theatre
402 North Coast Highway Oceanside

Winner of three Tony Awards and four Drama Desk Awards, Lend Me A Tenor is set in September 1934. Saunders, the general manager of the Cleveland Grand Opera Company, is primed to welcome world-famous singer Tito Merelli, known as "Il Stupendo," the greatest tenor of his generation, to appear for one night only as the star of the opera. The tickets are sold, the stage is set, and the 30-piece orchestra is ready. But, it's about to become "un disastro gigantesco", because it's three minutes to curtain, and the leading man - the greatest tenor in the world - has gone missing! A sensation on Broadway and in London's West End, this madcap, screwball comedy is guaranteed to leave audiences teary-eyed with laughter.
