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.
What’s a Mozart lover to do? Great music and a more-than-decent cast don’t necessarily add up to an enchanting night at the opera.
