The Marriage of Figaro

In a new Yorkshire version by Ian McMillan

Mashallah! It’s Mozart…but not as you’ve heard it!

Figaro’s getting wed to Suzanna. But his boss, the Count, has designs on her, neglecting his young Countess, Rosina. Can Figaro and Suzanna conspire to thwart the Count? And who is kissing the Countess down t’allotment!

Set in 1970s Bradford, with a new translation by BBC3 star, Yorkshire’s own Ian McMillan, this orchestral reimagining seamlessly blends Western and Indian Classical instruments. Performed by an ensemble that combines expert musicians and singers from both traditions, this is a fresh twist on a beloved classic, authentic and true to Mozart and Indian Classical music.

Following The Barber of Seville, praised as “an hilarious operatic treat” ★★★★ (The Telegraph), conductor Ben Crick and director Alex Chisholm continue to bring fresh life to familiar stories, with confidence, detail, and a real sense of play.
