Lend Me An Tenor 2002 Directed by Gernot Friedel
Tito Merelli, world-famous tenor, greatest singer of all time, audience favorite, and star on every continent, is making his first guest appearance in Cleveland – only: he's not there, having been overdue for hours. When he finally arrives, the opera director's relief is short-lived – marital trouble, digestive problems, fatigue, a mix-up of pills – the end result: Merelli sleeps like a baby, the opera director is furious, and the performance threatens to be canceled. – A lively comedy centered around the world's most famous stage, where recognizable similarities to favorites of the operatic stage are likely neither unintentional nor coincidental.
