I am blessed to present six more classically trained African American tenors", she continued.

Klausner is delighted, by returning to Chicago, where audiences warmly received the first Three Mo Tenors cast, that arts lovers will give the six new tenors the same welcome that they afforded the other cast.

We would like audiences to take an active role in promoting the talent of African American tenors. This will help ensure that they ascend to the top of the world of Opera." Klausner pointed out.

As creator and director of the show, Marion Caffey has stated, "THREE MO' TENORS is about more than just three men. It's a story about the history and the future of classically trained African American tenors who deserve to be heard."
