Hubbard Hall Opera Theater presents
Mozart's "The Marriage of Figaro"


In Barber of Seville, Count Almaviva, with substantial help from Figaro, wooed and won the lovely Rosina away from her crusty old ward and would-be husband, Dr. Bartolo.  In The Marriage of Figaro, Beaumarchais continued their story. The Count has married Rosina but their marriage has gone sour because of his philandering. Figaro has quit barbering and is now the Count’s major-domo. He is engaged to Susanna, who is Countess Rosina’s maid — and the Count’s intended conquest. Old Bartolo is back to seek revenge on Figaro for taking Rosina away from him, with the help of the slimy music-master, Don Basilo. Adding to the fun are an amorous teenager, a scheming old maid, a drunken gardener, and a silly young girl. Much happens on a single “folle journée” — a crazy day.  Directed by Alan Hicks. Lidiya Yankovskaia conducts. Fully costumed and staged with orchestra, in Italian with English supertitles. Run time: 2 hours.
