“A fast-paced, side-splitting evening of theater
…a joy from start to finish." – Chicago Sun-Times

Chaos reigns offstage and on in this Tony Award-winning backstage farce. The Cleveland Grand Opera Company has imported the world-famous tenor Tito Morelli to launch its season with a performance of Verdi’s Otello, only to discover their special attraction has passed out cold in his dressing room from taking too many tranquilizers. The company manager scrambles to make sure the show, as always, goes on. Who will perform? Will the audience notice? This crowd-pleasing comedy fills the theatre with mistaken identities, romantic intrigue, a cascade of slamming doors, and enough laughter to have you “singing” its praises for weeks to come.

“An uproarious farce… reaches hysteria
of operatic proportions” – USA Today
