Vocal fireworks, scheming lovers and one very busy barber, Rossini’s comic opera is packed with fun and mischief.
Proven to be one of the greatest masterpieces of comedy within music, Rossini’s Barber of Seville will feature on screen at the Torch Theatre, Milford Haven on Sunday, February 19. The popular work by The Royal Opera House will follow the escapades of the comic character Figaro, a scheming Spanish barber turned valet, so expect heart-melting serenades, ridiculous disguises and a fairy tale ending waiting just out of reach.
When the beautiful Rosina falls in love with a mysterious young suitor who calls himself Lindoro, she must use all her cunning – and a little help from her local barber – to outwit her calculating guardian Dr Bartolo.
From the barber’s famous opening number ‘Largo al factotum,’ with its cry of ‘Figaro! Figaro!,’ to Rosina’s feisty aria ‘Una voce poco fa,’ Rossini’s comic opera is a riotously entertaining affair. Rafael Payare makes his Royal Opera House debut conducting an outstanding international cast that includes Andrzej Filończyk, Aigul Akhmetshina, Laurence Brownlee and Welshman Bryn Terfel.
Please note that this is an encore screening, and not a live broadcast. The Opera will be sung in Italian with English subtitles.
The Royal Opera Houses’ Barber of Saville will be on screen at the Torch Theatre on Sunday, February 19 at 2pm. Tickets can be purchased from the Box Office Torch Theatre on 01646 695267 or torchtheatre.co.uk.
