The Barber of Seville

ABOUT
The wheeling and dealing Figaro plays matchmaker between the savvy Rosina and the lovesick Count Almaviva, while Rosina’s vulturous guardian does everything he can to keep the lovebirds apart. Full of schemes and hijinks, this “zany creation that is incredibly funny and wildly colorful” (City Arts) finishes the season on a high note.
Lindy Hume’s “bright hilarious production” (The Stranger) is an audience favorite with magnificently colorful sets and costumes. Combined with Gioachino Rossini’s familiar and show-stopping tunes, this production is a treat for ears and eyes alike!
