One hotel suite, four tenors, two wives, three girlfriends, and a soccer stadium filled with screaming fans. What could possibly go wrong? Almost everything! 1930s Paris is ready for the concert of the century — so long as producer Henry Saunders can keep the amorous Italian superstar, Tito, and his hot-blooded wife, Maria, from causing runaway chaos. Prepare for an uproarious ride, full of mistaken identities, blissful romance and madcap delight! A sequel to our hit of 2019, Lend Me a Tenor, the playwright, Ken Ludwig, has crafted another laugh-out-loud play.
