The Marriage of Figaro: Opera Australia Melbourne
About the Event
Treat yourself to a performance of Mozart's classic comedy: Anthony Legge conducts David McVicar's new production of "The Marriage of Figaro" at the State Theater of the Arts Center Melbourne.
Musically, "Figaro" is the ultimate ensemble opera, with brilliant trios, quartets, and even a fantastic sextet. Dramatically, it's the opera with everything: lovers and liaisons, disguises and tricks, lust and laughter.
Performed in Italian with English surtitles.
