SHADOWLAND STAGES will present the uproarious new comedy, LEND ME A SOPRANO. Adapted from the Tony Award-winning LEND ME A TENOR, LEND ME A SOPRANO promises an evening of side splitting entertainment. The production will grace SHADOWLAND's MainStage Theatre from July 18th through August 4th.
Set in 1934, LEND ME A SOPRANO transports audiences to the Cleveland Grand Opera Company on the eve of a monumental performance of CARMEN. Chaos ensues when world-class soprano Elena Firenzi, portrayed by Julia Meadows, arrives late, sparking a chain reaction of mistaken identities, jealous outbursts, and comedic calamity. As the showbiz adage goes, "The show must go on!"
Critics have hailed LEND ME A SOPRANO as "An undeniable crowd pleaser!" (Houston Press) and "A screwball delight, fast, furious and consistently funny!" (Houston Chronicle). This delightful farce boasts a stellar cast including Peter Evangelista, Hudson Harden Scheel, Katrina Ferguson, Stephanie Bacastow, Sam Balzac, Valerie Lynn Brett, Ben-David Carlson, and Julia Meadows. SHADOWLAND artistic director Brendan Burke is set to direct.
The production kicks off July 18th at 8 PM, leading up to the official opening night on July 20th at 8 PM. Opening night festivities will occur after the July 20th 8 PM performance at Tony & Nick's Italian Kitchen in Ellenville.
