The Marriage of Figaro

Approved

Icelandic Opera returns to the stage of the Icelandic National Theater with Mozart´s "Le nozze di Figaro". The opera is about love, marriage and entitlement. Figaro and Susanna must survive their wedding day and overcome huge obstacles – mistrust, jealousy, betrayal, lawsuits, massive debts and a lecherous lord. Meanwhile, as one marriage begins, another seems to be collapsing. The abandoned and furious Countess is hoping to save her marriage to the philandering Count, a nobleman intent on exercising decadent and ancient rights to which he mistakenly believes himself fully entitled. In a sparkling new baroque production full of aristocratic absurdity, farce and comedy, the eighteenth century has never looked so colorful, vibrant and fun.

English

Íslenska óperan snýr aftur á fjalir Þjóðleikhússins með hina óborganlegu gamanóperu Brúðkaup Fígarós eftir meistara Mozart. 

Óperan er byggð á gamanleikriti Beaumarchais og er full af fyndnum uppákomum, misskilningi og óvæntum uppljóstrunum. Verkið hefur engu að síður alvarlegan undirtón og felur í sér leiftrandi ádeilu á samskipti yfirstéttar og alþýðu.

Sagan gerist í kastala Almaviva greifa, í nágrenni Sevilla. Hinn kvensami greifi rennir hýru auga til Súsönnu, sem er þjónustustúlka eiginkonu hans. Daginn sem Súsanna á að giftast Fígaró hyggst greifinn nýta sér aldagamlan herrarétt til að sænga hjá henni. Greifafrúin og Súsanna taka höndum saman um að leika á greifann, og klækjabrögð þeirra hafa ýmsar kostulegar afleiðingar.

Ópera um ást, hjónaband, stéttaskiptingu og forréttindi, í nýrri og bráðskemmtilegri uppfærslu.

Veisla sem kemur á óvart!
