The McGann-Mercy Theatre Company is set to perform Elton John and Tim Rice’s Broadway show “Aida” on May 1-3 and host the group’s annual spaghetti dinner May 2. 

The musical opens in the Egyptian wing of a modern day museum, where two strangers meet and are “transported” back to ancient Egypt.

More than 50 Bishop McGann-Mercy Diocesan High School students have signed on to produce the show, officials said.

The show starts at 7:30 p.m. and will take place in the school’s auditorium. Tickets costs $10.

The spaghetti dinner will take place between 5 and 7 p.m. on May 2. Tickets cost $15, which includes admission to the show. Proceeds from the dinner will benefit the McGann-Mercy Theatre Company.
