Get ready for an unforgettable, Picasso-esque look at Mozart’s masterpiece. Quick-witted Figaro hatches a plan to thwart the Count’s scheme to seduce his bride-to-be, Susanna. A comical riot of mistaken identities, disguises, and delightful chaos ensues. Secrets are revealed, but love triumphs with Mozart’s dazzling score and a fast-paced, brilliant exploration of class, love, and loyalty. Whether you are a seasoned opera lover or a newcomer, The Marriage of Figaro promises unending artistry, humor, and exhilaration through every note.
Join Nicole Steinberg, PhD, for a pre-performance discussion held one hour before each show at The Barns, exploring how Mozart portrayed the intelligence and complexity of women in his operas.
Sung in Italian with English captions with the Wolf Trap Orchestra.
