High drama and hilarity: Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama

Julia Savage, 4th March

Despite a relatively easy-to-follow storyline, Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro is an opera that is hard to pull off entirely successfully. Musically, it requires enormous vigour from both cast and orchestra; dramatically, this opera buffa demands strong acting skills in order to eke out its moments of farce.
