2024.5.15. Barber of Seville
5/15, Wednesday.
Seattle Opera's Barber of Seville is a real treat.
Very funny. Lively and fun choreography. Good acting. Nice stage set. Beautiful costumes.
2 acts with a 25 min intermission.
First act is twice as long as the 2nd.
The story is typically operatic silly: Figaro plays matchmaker between the savvy Rosina and the lovesick Count Almaviva, while Rosina's vulturous guardian does everything he can to keep the lovebirds apart.
