Five College Opera: Le Nozze di Figaro (The Marriage of Figaro)

Music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart; libretto by Lorenzo Da Ponte
Presented in Italian with projected English supertitles.

The Marriage of Figaro is Mozart’s sparkling comedy of love and class, set during a single chaotic day. When Figaro and Susanna’s wedding plans are jeopardized by Count Almaviva’s entitled advances, a whirlwind of disguises and misunderstandings ensues, culminating in a joyous celebration of wit, compassion, and the triumph of love.

The Five College Opera is a collaborative production in which faculty from across the campuses join together to plan an opera and students in music and theater from all of the campuses have the opportunity to study and perform. Students learn operatic techniques from experts and perform in a production which is open to the public.
