With Le Bus Figaro, Opéra national du Capitole takes to the road to showcase the brilliant madness of The Barber of Seville.
Behind the whirlwind of gags and misunderstandings in The Barber of Seville, a wind of freedom blows – that of Rossini’s irresistible music, which made Beaumarchais’ comedy one of the most dazzling masterpieces of the operatic repertoire. Le Bus Figaro concentrates the essentials into one hour: the most beautiful moments of the work, sung in French, alternate with delicious dialogue.
Four singers, an accordion, sets and costumes made in our workshops: an entire pocket theatre put together with the excellence that characterises Capitole!
Music: Giovacchino Antonio Rossini / Libretto: Dorian ASTOR / Director: Frédérique LOMBART / Set design: Hernán Peñuela / Costumes: Alice Thomas
