The Marriage of Figaro - English Touring Opera
from 23/03/2010 until 23/03/2010.
Tuesday 23 March 7.30pm
Season of Comedy
This
Spring, English Touring Opera present three of the wittiest works of
the repertoire, taken from the 18th, 19th, and 20th Centuries. These
very different operas – all of them describing the events of one day -
find comedy in stifling Sevillian manor houses, in enchanted woods, and
in dusty bachelors' quarters.
The Marriage of Figaro – Mozart
An
elegant, period costume production of one of the world's most popular
operas, containing some of Mozart's most beautiful and familiar music.
The
plot (based on Beaumarchais' controversial play) traces the intrigues
of one day at the house of Count Almaviva. Figaro is to marry Susanna,
(a maid, but also a 'favourite' of the Count - and opera's most
charming heroine, here played by Eliana Praetorian and Claire Ormshaw),
but he must overcome every obstacle put in his way by the Count and his
cronies, before he can be united finally with his bride.
