The Barber of Seville

May 3–10, 2025

MUSIC BY GIOACHINO ROSSINI
LYRICS BY CESARE STERBINI

Where love is concerned, too much is not even enough. Rosina is young, clever, and wealthy, but her greedy guardian desires her and her fortune for himself. Using her wits to outsmart him and find her true love, she enlists Figaro, the mischievous and well-connected local barber, who has more than a few tricks up his sleeve. Plans go awry (resulting in several close shaves) against the backdrop of Gioachino Rossini’s iconic score as romance and a little old-fashioned trickery combine in one of the best-loved comedies of all time. 

Sung in Italian with English captions projected above the stage.
