Le Nozze di Figaro, or The Marriage of Figaro, is a wondrous operatic experience in four acts. It is one of the most performed and watched operas in the world, thanks to Mozart’s enduring appeal and comedic theatricality as well as the ever engaging themes of class and gender dynamics.

 

This production is directed by Lo Kingman and conducted by Andrew Ling, the principal violist of the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra.
