Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro

Mozart’s sublime comedy, packed with hilarious hijinks, glorious melody, and sharp social commentary, returns to cinemas with an extraordinary ensemble cast. Bass-baritone Michael Sumuel is the clever valet Figaro, opposite soprano Olga Kulchynska as his betrothed, the wily maid Susanna. Baritone Joshua Hopkins is the philandering Count, with soprano Federica Lombardi as his anguished wife and mezzo-soprano Sun-Ly Pierce as the adolescent page Cherubino. One of today’s most in-demand young conductors, Joana Mallwitz makes her Met debut on the podium, leading an energetic staging by Richard Eyre.
