Lanza

Work:: Lanza (S921548892)

Lanza charts the life of sensational 1950's singer and movie star, Mario Lanza. More than a tribute show, he comes alive to set the record straight, weaving together personal reminiscence and song. In a hospital room in Rome, inspired by a scratchy Caruso record, Lanza's life flashes before him. He is tended by his nurse, who comes to embody all the women in his life. The drama examines the nature of fame and asks why a man, who seemingly has the world at his feet, spirals out of control. Packed with operatic hits and songs made famous by Lanza, including 'Granada', 'Without a Song' and 'Be my Love'.
