SAN FRANCISCO OPERA PRODUCTION

GIOACHINO ROSSINI

In Rossini’s quick-witted comic style and warmly expressive melodies, this spunky tale shows us the meaning of zest for life as young love blossoms against all odds.

THE SCENE
Dr. Bartolo’s house in Seville

THE STORY
Count Almaviva loves the beautiful Rosina, who is kept a virtual prisoner in the house of her lecherous guardian Dr. Bartolo. Almaviva hires jack-of-all-trades Figaro to liberate her, which he does with an ingenious array of hilarious tricks and disguises. In this not-to-be missed production, even Dr. Bartolo’s house takes part in the action!
