Actors from around the community including: Julia Haimowitz, Garrett Forster, Kyle Kulish, Sam Gullo, Tommy Claffey, Felicia Marie, Kelsey Krosskove and Janice Crow-Christensen joined the cast to put on this farce-comedy set in 1934 at the Cleveland Grand Opera Company.

The story starts with Tito Morelli, a famous tenor who is supposed to perform that evening at the Opera Company.

He shows up late with indigestion, accidentally mixes red wine with tranquilizers, and the story goes out of control.

“What a great group to spend my evenings with! Fearless. Inventive. Personable. Dedicated. Working with each of them the last two months has been such a joy,” said Director Paul Wickline, discussing his cast.

Although this performance is now over, the COC Theatre Department is planning more shows in the Fall including: “Five Women Wearing the Same Dress”, “Reasons to be Pretty” and “Of Mice and Men.”

Auditions for the fall shows will be Aug. 26 and Aug. 27 at 7 p.m. in the Black Box Theater.
