Opera de Paris: THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO at State Cinema Hobart

Opera de Paris: THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO

220 mins | Rated Exempt

Directed by Netia Jones

Starring Peter Mattei, Maria Bengtsson, Ying Fang, Lea Desandre, Ildebrando D'Arcangelo


Mozart and Da Ponte’s joyous take on Beaumarchais’ comedic play is one of the repertoire’s most iconic works. Brahms spoke of it as a “miracle” and the Countess’s lament remains one of the most heart-rending musical pages of all time. For her debut Paris staging, British director, designer and video artist Netia Jones humorously yet mischievously explores human relationships in a universe that confuses reality and fiction to the point of asking, like the Count: “Are we playing in a comedy?”. The terrific cast is led by Luca Pisaroni as the clever Figaro, set on outmanoeuvring his master, the Count (Peter Mattei). Ying Fang sings Susanna - the object of the Count’s affection and Figaro’s bride-to-be - and Maria Bengtsson is the Countess, desperate to regain her husband’s love by any means necessary. Paris Opera Music Director Gustavo Dudamel conducts.
