The Marriage of Figaro - Wellington
22 May 2010 

The Marriage of Figaro - Wellington
The NBR New Zealand Opera presents Mozart's opera, 'The Marriage of Figaro', at the St James Theatre in Wellington, 15 - 22 May 2010.

The Marriage of Figaro reveals Mozart at his most daring in setting to sublime music Beaumarchais’ contemporary and highly subversive play. The result is opera at its best.

It is eight years since The NBR New Zealand last staged Mozart’s much-loved opera, so for many, a new production is well overdue. Many also believe that it has been a long wait for the Company’s General Director Aidan Lang to make his New Zealand directing debut.

Alongside Lang, an excellent line-up of New Zealand and international opera singers have been secured for the principal roles including one of the biggest names in opera circles today – Italian soprano Nuccia Focile.

Joining her is a strong New Zealand cast led by exciting up-and-coming bass Wade Kernot as Figaro. Renowned opera and orchestral conductor Lionel Friend takes the baton.

Sung in Italian with English surtitles

With special guests the Chapman Tripp Opera Chorus. Accompanied by the Vector Wellington Orchestra.
