SUMMARY

In 2012 we celebrate Mozart’s revolutionary masterpiece, The Marriage of Figaro with a new production from one of the most exciting theatrical minds in Australia, Benedict Andrews.

After his award-winning productions of The Wars of the Roses and The Seagull, what will he make of Mozart? Come and see, when the outstanding cast, including Russian soprano Elvira Fatykhova as the Countess, takes to the stage for one of the greatest operas of all time.

It’s a special day. Susanna, the housemaid, and Figaro, the security guard, are getting married! And the boss has provided them with brand new married quarters, ideally positioned right between his and his wife’s bedrooms.

Wait a minute… ideally positioned for whom? Could the boss have his eye on the bride?

Performed in English with English surtitles
Running time: Approximately three hours and twenty minutes including one twenty-minute interval.
