Lend Me a Tenor, set exclusively in a Cleveland hotel room, debuted on Broadway in 1989. Chaos and comedy rule from the start of the show, as the owner of a local theatre and his noble cronie realize that their Italian tenor superstar Tito Morelli is nowhere to be found two hours before curtain time. More tribulations arise as this one resolves, including apparent suicide, mistaken identities, and ardent vocal interludes.
