The Marriage of Figaro
Advertisement
Love's many threads, brilliantly woven.
Often hailed as the gold standard of opera, Mozart’s masterful portrayal of an extraordinary wedding day marries sparkling wit with profound insights on love, aging, forgiveness, and, ultimately, the joy of coming together. As they prepare to tie the knot, Susanna and Figaro must contend with their amorous employer Count Almaviva; his wife, the Countess; the scheming Marcellina; and a colorful cast of characters who place numerous (and often amusing) obstacles in their path to the altar. Love wins, carried by music of breathtaking beauty, warmth, and humanity.
COMPOSER: W. A. Mozart
LIBRETTO: Lorenzo Da Ponte
CONDUCTOR: Rory Macdonald
DIRECTOR: Stephen Lawless
