Le nozze di Figaro - Schedule, Program & Tickets
Le nozze di Figaro
Opera by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
In Italian with German and English surtitles
Figaro, the Count's servant, has become engaged to Susanna, the Countess's maid. The Count is stalking Susanna. The countess suffers from her husband's infidelity. Figaro hatches a plan to put the count in his place. After a "great day" (as the subtitle of Beaumarchais' original play) full of disguises, misunderstandings and other comical complications, Figaro gets his Susanna and the Count has no choice but to apologize to the Countess.
In her production, Lotte de Beer examines the themes of sex and power from the perspective of different characters. In the four acts of the opera we each see the world from a different perspective: Count, Susanna, Countess and Barbarina.
