State Opera South Australia's The Marriage Of Figaro opens this week featuring Nicholas Lester
Now presented in a bold, modern version directed by Adelaide-based Nicholas Cannon, who said he’s honoured to be making his mainstage directorial debut for State Opera this year.
The Lover’s Garden or Il Giardino Degli Amanti is a new ballet which delightfully pairs Mozart’s famous quartets and quintets with characters from his operas.
Co-Opera has been touring this production of Mozart's opera buffa, The Marriage of Figaro, since the beginning of March, and they have polished it to perfection over that time. Add their cabaret style seating and you have all the ingredients for an unbeatable night out.
The surprise Australian comedy hit of 2009, The Marriage Of Figaro, will be released nationally on DVD and on iTunes from 25August 2010.
