The three-time Tony Award winning laugh riot Lend Me A Tenor follows the misadventures of Max and the Cleveland Grand Opera company. After preparing a lovely reception for Il Stupendo, the greatest tenor of his generation, for a one-night only performance in Pagliacci Max finds his star on the verge of death, the theatre in potential ruins, and worst of all his fiance has a thing for tenors! As Max dons the makeup to stand in for Il Stupendo, hilarity and mischief ensue.

"A furiously paced comedy with more than a touch of the Marx brothers … A marvelous combination of wonderful farcical moments and funny lines." – Time Out

This ground-breaking documentary investigates our addiction to plastic and the growing threat of microplastics on human health. Almost every bit of plastic ever made breaks down into “microplastics.” These microscopic particles drift in the air, float in all bodies of water, and mix into the soil, becoming a permanent part of the environment.

Now, leading scientists are finding these particles in our organs, blood, brain tissue, and even the placentas of new mothers. How do these invisible invaders affect our health? And what can we do to minimize their impact?

Science journalist Ziya Tong takes a personal approach to investigating this topic by visiting scientists around the world and undergoing experiments in her home, on her food, and on her body while collaborating with director Ben Addelman in an urgent call to action for all of us to rethink our relationship with plastic.
