The Marriage of Figaro Tickets On Sale Now

Gossip, laugh and cringe at one household’s romantic trials and tribulations as Mozart’s whirlwind comedic romp The Marriage of Figaro returns to the London Coliseum. Packed with madcap schemes, absurd situations and sublime music, this playful opera is a deeply rewarding watch - and in the English National Opera’s new season, it is “the escapist tonic you need” (The Times)!

About The Marriage of Figaro

When sleazy Count Almaviva makes an advance on the Countess’ maid Susanna, his head of staff Figaro thinks his marriage might be over before it has even begun. With Figaro and Susannah engaged and the count determined to spend a night with her before the big day,

Soon, the entire household has taken sides, and amidst a flurry of deception, disguises and double-crossing, the divided factions declare Figaro’s love life a battleground - with hilarious consequences for the audience!

Buoyed by one of Mozart’s most bubbly and surprising scores, The Marriage of Figaro is considered one of the greatest operas ever written. The story is the perfect balance between light and shade, with richly drawn characters springing from the stage and a touching romance at its centre. Its arias are world-famous, and audiences might recognise “‘Non piú andrai’” as one of the pieces performed annually at Trooping the Colour.

Cast and Creative Team

Acclaimed director Joe Hill-Gibbins’ (The Changeling, Richard II) “slick, cool” (The Telegraph) production brings an exciting new energy to this classic opera. His bold and contemporary vision, including a pared-back set, allows Mozart’s overtures and arias to be enjoyed at their full power. It was last at the Coliseum in 2020, when critics hailed it “as ingenious as it is engrossing” (Evening Standard).

The show is conducted by Komische Oper, Berlin’s Music Director Ainārs Rubiķis, and stars David Ireland as Figaro and Mary Bevan as Susannah.
