Marriage of Figaro
March 14, 16, 18, 20 - 7:30 PM
March 22 - 2:00 PM
They say that sequels are never as good as the original…but in this sequel to The Barber of Seville, Mozart created one of his most successful works. Set in Count Almaviva’s castle in Seville, Spain in the late 18th century, Marriage of Figaro is an opera of triangles of amore. Figaro is set to marry the beautiful Susanna. Susanna is constantly repelling the repeated advances of the Count. A creditor of Figaro, Marcellina, plans to advert Figaro’s nuptials and allow him to settle his dept by marrying her. Cherubino, the page, is lovesick over the Countess. And the Countess seeks to re-attract the attentions of her husband.
It is not difficult to imagine the confusion and hilarity that ensues. Through an elaborate domino-effect of blunders, follies, and mistaken identities that are sure to entertain, all parties discover the identity of their rightful partner, repentance and forgiveness abounds, and all rejoice in a rightful happily ever after.
Sung in Italian with English supertitles.

Don Pasquale
May 16, 18, 20, 22 - 7:30 PM
May 24 - 2:00 PM
While Don Pasquale is traditionally set in Rome, Utah Opera’s performance of Don Pasquale uses the Wild West as its backdrop. Don Pasquale is the story of an elderly, wealthy, (and miserly) bachelor who has no heir. To remedy the situation, he tries to persuade his young nephew Ernesto to accept an arranged marriage. Ernesto refuses to obey his uncle since his heart is already pledged to the glamorous yet penniless widow, Norina. In a fit of anger, Pasquale turns the tables on his nephew by disinheriting him and deciding to get married and produce an heir himself.
After a bewildering chain of events involving a little fraud and some bogus legal proceedings, the story ends well with true love conquering all—as we hope it always does.
Sung in Italian with English supertitles.
