A Comedy of Tenors

Paris in the 1930s. Posh, right? Throw in three Italian opera singers, a lush hotel suite and the promise to deliver the performance of a lifetime and the stage is set for the hilariously glamourous A Comedy of Tenors. Cleveland Playhouse begins its 100th season with performances of Ken Ludwig’s sequel to the wildly successful Lend Me a Tenor (but have no fear, though a Comedy of Tenors follows the same characters, so there’s no need to have seen Lend me a Tenor to understand it). It’s a perfect choice to kick off playhouse’s 100th season. The play opens tonight at 7:30 at the Allen Theatre. Tickets are $20 to $80. (Hetrick)
