This over-the-top comedy sings in the right key. Set in 1934, the Cleveland Grand Opera company is making history when a world-famous tenor is to perform as Otello at the gala season opener. When comical trouble arises, the general manager’s assistant, Max, must take the stage and save the show. Recommended for mature audience.
