Opera
The Barber of Seville
Gioachino Rossini
Olympia Theatre
Rossini’s work The Barber of Seville, the most famous Italian comic opera, returns to the Greek National Opera in Francesco Micheli’s subversive production which was first presented with great success during last year’s artistic period. The Greek National Opera production, which was also staged with great success last winter by the Teatro Comunale di Bologna, brings Figaro’s tale into the digital age, and sheds light on Rosina’s world which lies somewhere between dream and reality.
The work needs no introductions. The lively, witty and particularly melodic music goes perfectly with a series of comic scenes as the barber Figaro helps the Conte de Almaviva marry the lovely Rosina, who lives with her aged protector Doctor Bartolo, who intends to marry her himself.
