Le Nozze di Figaro

A prominent Mozart opera. This opera buffa masterpiece unfolds around the story of the Count and the Countessa Almaviva, their servant Figaro, Figaro's betrothed Susanna and the count's page Cherubino.

Musical highlights include Figaro's aria "Non Più Andrai", Cherubino's aria "Voi Che Sapete Che Cosa è Amor" and the Countessa's "Porgi Amor", among other well-known pieces.

Director Andreas HOMOKI (currently the General Director of Opernhaus Zürich) created the set to be a space "outside of time", noting that in this work Mozart deals with the troubles and worries of humanity which are unchanging. Everything is arranged in black and white, the design that changes with the passage of time representing the breakdown of feudal society.

The cast includes rising international stars Vito PRIANTE and Dario SOLARI. They are joined by OHSUMI Chikako who jumped in the opening performance of this season as Helena in A Midsummer Night's Dream, USUKI Ai who is known for bringing her beautiful voice and expressiveness to a difficult role in Asters, and WAKIZONO Aya, who has taken on leading roles in works by Rossini and Mozart at opera houses in Italy, mesmerising Japanese audiences with her outstanding vocal expression and acting prowess, in Don Giovanni and Il Barbiere di Siviglia. Expect great things of this illustrious line up!

*Please note that we will modify a part of the original production into "A New Normal " style version.
