Il barbiere di Siviglia (The Barber of Seville) by Rossini
Rossini’s zany comedy takes place during a single day in a hectic Spanish household. Doctor Bartolo is guardian to Rosina and has plans to marry her. She has other ideas as she has fallen in love with Count Almaviva. With Figaro’s sharp-witted help and a variety of disguises, the lovers trick the old Doctor and prove that love overcomes all obstacles. The cast includes Matthew Durkan as Figaro, Tereza Gevorgyan as Rosina, Michael Bell as Almaviva and Matthew Hargreaves as Bartolo.
