The local community theater has set audition dates for this year’s play, a comedy by Ken Ludwig titled, “Lend Me a Soprano”. Auditions will be held on Sunday, January 12th from 5:30 – 7:30 PM at the Pine City High School Auditorium.
The play is set in 1934, when the clever and combustible Lucille Wiley, Manager of the Cleveland Grand Opera Company, is ready to welcome world-class soprano Elena Firenzi for her one-night-only starring role in Carmen. Alas, Elena arrives late, her impassioned husband Pasquale has a fit of jealousy, and it remains to be seen whether Mrs. Wiley’s mousy but determined assistant Jo can save the day. The play is based on Ludwig’s Tony Award-winning “Lend Me A Tenor”, the roles are reversed and the ladies take the lead in this comedy guaranteed to leave audiences teary-eyed with laughter. The show will be directed by Jay Schueller.
