For the first time we are presenting a sequel. 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. This farce brings us 4 of the same characters that you loved in Lend me a Tenor.

Open auditions for all roles will take place:
