The Marriage of Figaro
The Marriage of Figaro continues the plot of The Barber of Seville (which centers around Count Almaviva’s pursuit of Rosina) several years later, and recounts a single “day of madness” (la folle journée) in the palace of Count Almaviva. Rosina is now the countess. Dr. Bartolo is seeking revenge against Figaro for thwarting his plans to marry Rosina himself, and Count Almaviva has degenerated from the romantic youth of Barber, into a scheming, bullying, skirt-chasing baritone. Having gratefully given Figaro a job as head of his servant-staff, he is now persistently trying to exercise his feudal right to bed a servant girl on her wedding night (which he had prior relinquished in his courtship with the Countess) – with Figaro’s bride-to-be, Susanna, who is the countess’s maid. He keeps finding excuses to delay the civil part of the wedding of his two servants, which is arranged for this very day. Figaro, Susanna, and the countess conspire to embarrass the count and expose his scheming. He retaliates by trying to compel Figaro legally to marry a woman old enough to be his mother, but it turns out at the last minute that she really is his mother. Through the clever manipulations of Susanna and the countess and several hijkinks along the way, Figaro and Susanna are finally able to marry.
This is the second of two show. The first show is at 7:30 p.m. on 4/11.
