COACH HOUSE THEATRE 732 West Exchange Street Akron, OH 44302 330-434-7741 box office <http://www.ohioshakespeare.com/> www.coachhousetheatre.com Sit back and get ready for big laughs in Ken Ludwig's uproariously funny LEND ME A TENOR Showing May 12 to June 5, 2016 at Coach House Theatre in Akron Thursday-Friday-Saturday nights, Sunday afternoons Lend Me a Tenor, the hysterical modern classic from farce-master Ken Ludwig, will be on stage at Akron's Coach House Theatre, from May 12 to June 5, 2016. A famous Italian opera star is accidentally drugged before his big performance at the Cleveland Grand Opera Company. He is secretly replaced by the company's harried young assistant - both in the opera and backstage, where frenzied action scenes unfold in a hotel suite's two adjoining rooms simultaneously. Lend Me a Tenor is packed with comic misunderstandings, slamming doors, scantily-clad women, and lots of heart - everything you could want in a farce!
