Premiere: Kirill Serebrennikov stages "The Marriage of Figaro" at the Komische Oper Berlin
“The mother of all musical comedies, now back at the Schiller Theater! Lovers in closets, leaps into flowerbeds, nighttime trysts: Based on the text of his beloved poet Lorenzo Da Ponte, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed a masterpiece with truly all the ingredients of a perfect romantic comedy. Rapidly paced, multifaceted in its emotionality, and full of playful wit, Mozart seduces us into the heartfelt destinies of his protagonists, thus showing us the most diverse varieties of love. After Così fan tutte , "brilliantly fast-paced, close to slapstick, and yet profound" [SÜDDEUTSCHE ZEITUNG], director Kirill Serebrennikov brings the second part of his Mozart-Da Ponte cycle to the stage of the Komische Oper Berlin with Le nozze di Figaro .”
