LEND ME A TENOR<\/h3>\n

September 27 to October 5 2019
\nBy Ken Ludwig<\/p>\n

It\u2019s September 8, 1934 \u2013 the biggest night in the history of the Cleveland Grand Opera Company. The world-famous Tenor, Tito Merelli, known as Il Stupendo, is set to appear for one night only as the star of the opera, at the ten-year anniversary gala season opener. Tito arrives late, and through a hilarious series of mishaps, he is given a double dose of tranquilizers and passes out. Tito is believed to be dead and everyone is in a panic. In a frantic attempt to save the evening and fool the audience, Tito is replaced by Max, an assistant with little stage training. But when the real Tenor suddenly awakens and gets into costume, the chaos of mistaken identities, mixed signals and misunderstandings has everyone scrambling! A sensation on Broadway and in London\u2019s West End, this madcap, zany farce is guaranteed to leave audiences teary-eyed with laughter.<\/p>\n

MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET<\/h3>\n

December 6 to 14, 2019
\nAdapted by Mountain Community Theater from the novel by Valentine Davies. Based upon the Twentieth Century Fox motion picture Miracle on 34th Street.<\/p>\n

When Kris Kringle, a nice old man from a retirement home gets a job working as a Christmas Santa at Macy\u2019s, his honest and generous spirit unleashes waves of good will throughout New York City, and a hint of magic in the heart of a very practical little girl. Seen as deluded and dangerous by Macy\u2019s vocational counselor, who plots to have Kris shanghaied to Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital, Kris ends up in a court competency hearing where his freedom and the joys of childhood fantasy are at stake. This holiday tale is one we want to believe in, where love, decency, and generosity of spirit are their own rewards. Share this perennial holiday favorite with the entire family this season!<\/p>\n

THE GRADUATE<\/h3>\n

January 31 to February 15, 2020
\nAdapted by Terry Johnson, based on the novel by Charles Webb and the screenplay by Calder Willingham and Buck Henry<\/p>\n

Benjamin Braddock is a confused young man. Having spent four years achieving a brilliant scholastic record, upon graduation he finds himself adrift, uncertain about his future, disconnected from his purpose, and increasingly alienated from the upper-class, suburban, \u201cplastic\u201d world of his parents in 1960\u2019s Southern California. Fighting panic and boredom, he is deeply conflicted but ultimately willing when Mrs. Robinson, the unhappily married, alcoholic, and dangerously charismatic wife of his father\u2019s business partner, tempts him into an affair. Benjamin\u2019s tenuous existence of lazy days and stolen nights falls apart when he falls in love \u2014 with Elaine \u2014 Mrs. Robinson\u2019s upbeat, optimistic daughter.<\/p>\n

THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE<\/h3>\n

May 1 to 16, 2020
\nBy Gilbert and Sullivan<\/p>\n

Strike up the band for one of Gilbert and Sullivan\u2019s most beloved operettas! The Pirates of Penzance combines whimsy, light-hearted satire and piratical characters with stirring music, including the iconic \u201cMajor-General\u2019s Song\u201d. This is the play that cemented the comic-pirate theme in popular culture, a theme that has lasted through more than a century and spawned countless movies and novels. Jam-packed with sentimental, swashbuckling pirates, a completely dotty Major General and a bumbling bunch of hopeless but hilarious policemen, what could possibly go wrong?\u00a0 To add to the topsy-turvy nature of G&S, Morpheus will be flipping the genders of all your favourite characters.<\/p>\n
