The Barber of Seville: Oslo Opera House
About the Event
Witness this new version of 'The Barber of Seville' by Rossini with American mezzo‐soprano Samantha Hankey in the role of Rosina at the Oslo Opera House.
In this highly‐anticipated production, the story is told from Rosina's point of view. The audience becomes part of a game that is entertaining and infectiously funny, but also vulnerable and confusing -- it is the transformation of a young woman on a journey of becoming.
Performed in Italian. Surtitles in Norwegian and English.
