PROGRAM
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Le Nozze di Figaro (The Marriage of Figaro)

The Marriage of Figaro is arguably one of the first true romantic comedies, beginning with its iconic and energetic overture. With a libretto by Lorenzo da Ponte, this story is an Enlightenment-era social commentary with lots of laughs thrown in. Many say the theme of this beloved opera is the beauty of forgiveness and redemption. Come see for yourself.
