The Marriage of Figaro at Power Center for the Performing Arts

Considered by many to be the “perfect opera,” The Marriage of Figaro tells the story of a single day in the life of Figaro and Susanna as they attempt to get married – against the wishes of others. Mozart’s opera buffa (or comic opera) is a sequel of sorts to Paisello’s The Barber of Seville: Both operas are adaptations of plays in Pierre-Augustin Beaumarchais’s Figaro trilogy. The Marriage of Figaro remains one of the most-loved and oft-performed operas to this day. Sung in Italian with English surtitles Directed by Chía Patiño Conducted by Sahar Nouri
