Photos: THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO At The Santa Fe Opera

See first look photos of the Santa Fe Opera's 2025 revival of Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro directed by Laurent Pelly and starring FLORIAN Sempey, Riccardo Fassi, Marina Monzó, Liv Redpath and Hongni Wu. 

Love, loyalty and lies can be a tricky trio. In Mozart’s hands, they’re perfectly wound into a comedy brimming with mistaken identities, youthful yearning and hilarious antics. Will Figaro keep his wife’s heart safe from the Count’s amorous advances?

French director Laurent Pelly’s stylish production, set in the late 1930s just before World War II, is back by popular demand! The Santa Fe Opera is proud to present the following American debuts: Italian bass Riccardo Fassi in the title role, French baritone Florian Sempey as Count Almaviva and Spanish soprano Marina Monzó as Countess Almaviva. Former apprentice Liv Redpath will sing Susanna and Chinese mezzo-soprano Hongni Wu sings Cherubino. Music Director Harry Bicket conducts the international cast.
