Synopsis

Mozart’s comic opera, set in 18th-century Spain, follows a single tumultuous day in the lives of Figaro and Susanna, servants in the household of Count Almaviva. As they prepare for their wedding, complications arise when the Count—tiring of his marriage to the Countess—schemes to seduce Susanna. Figaro, Susanna, and the Countess join forces to outwit him, while a host of subplots involving disguises, mistaken identities, and romantic entanglements add to the chaos. By the end, the Count is exposed and humiliated, begs his wife’s forgiveness, and harmony is restored with the celebration of Figaro and Susanna’s marriage.
