An ageless comedy about the power of the clever and the powerlessness of the powerful.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Everyone knows it: you have your life dreams and plans, you work hard and honestly to realize them, but then something happens. This is also the story of the resourceful servant Figaro, who sets out on his journey towards the horizon of marriage with determination and loving anticipation, but his plan is suddenly disrupted by a passionate, crazy count who thinks he can have whatever he wants, including Figaro's fiancée, Susanna. You will find out how the servant deals with the power plays of his oily master in this brilliant opera comedy by W. A. Mozart from 1786, with a libretto written by Lorenzo da Ponte based on the famous drama of the same name by Pierre de Beaumarchais. May 2026 marks exactly 240 years since the world premiere in Vienna – yet Mozart's genius is a guarantee that even after more than two centuries, the work has lost none of its charm and relevance.
