Figaro loves Susanna. Susanna loves Figaro. It’s a simple story, really, except for the Count, Countess, housekeeper, page, gardener’s daughter, music master and the scheming Dr. Bartolo. Doors are locked, beds are bounced on, and the window? Let’s just be glad it’s on the ground floor. Dive into love at its most manic and Mozart’s music at its most deliciously complex and majestic.
