  3. The Marriage of Figaro


With a light touch, Barrie Kosky traces the progress of Mozart's Figaro, somewhere »between Luis Buñuel’s The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie and Duck Soup by the Marx Brothers«, tracking the all-too human meanderings and confusions of Mozart’s characters. He squeezes Susanna and Figaro into a tiny chamber, shoulder to shoulder with the Count and the whole choir as well, or lets them wander past each other, lost in the confusion of their own feelings, in the dark of night on a virtually empty stage. »Mozart's thoroughly erotic music finds its happy continuation on the stage.
True life is rampant here.
