Andrew Gray Jaime Van Eyck	Friday, July 12 at 8:15pm BAR HARBOR MUSIC FESTIVAL OPERA THEATER LE NOZZE DI FIGARO By Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart The Historic Criterion Theater One of the greatest operas ever written, The Marriage of Figaro is a witty, yet profound tale of love, revenge and forgiveness. The illustrious Figaro is now in the employ of the philandering Count Almaviva. The tables have turned and Figaro's bride-to-be Susanna is the apple of the Count's eye. The Countess Rosina conspires with the two servants to expose and embarrass the cunning, skirt-chasing Count and defeat the droit du seigneur. Set in Spain, this continuation of The Barber of Seville focuses on the debauchery that unfolds during a single "day of madness" in this grand folly of aristocratic courtship. This sparkling comic opera combines Mozart's brilliant lyrical writing with dramatic depth and intrigue. An evening of opera not to be missed. Andrew Gray: Figaro Angela Maninno: Susanna Danielle Pastin: Contessa Almaviva Keith Harris: Count Almaviva Jaime Van Eyck: Cherubino Jeffrey Tarr: Bartolo/Antonio Carolyn Kahl-Hardy: Marcellina Julius Ahn: Don Basilio/Don Curzio Alexandra Hale: Barbarina "Featuring the Shildkret Family Singers"
