Story0
This is Thomas Holcroft's English translation, obtained by attending Pierre Beaumarchais' French play nine times in Paris during its original official staging in 1784. Beaumarchais' play was the basis for Mozart's 1796 opera, and is a satire about lovers' misdoings and French society. Because of its rebellious themes, presented during the troubling times leading up to the French Revolution, Beaumarchais had a very difficult time getting his play past the censors. Once staged, the play was enormously popular with audiences, including the aristocracy despite their understanding of the underlying...

Story0
Count Almaviva's heart is stolen when he lays eyes on Rosine, but he worries that she will only love him for his money. Can Figaro help him? This comedy is the first play in Beaumarchais' Figaro trilogy. It was written in 1773, but because of political and legal problems, Beaumarchais could not stage the play until 1775. The Barber of Seville was adapted into at least five operas, the best-known being by Rossini. (Summary by Lynette Caulkins) The other plays in the trilogy are #2: The Follies of a Day; Or, the Marriage of Figaro and #3: Frailty and Hypocrisy. Cast list: Count Almaviva, Spanish...

Story0
This is James Wild's English translation of the French play, "The Guilty Mother," the third installment of Pierre Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais' Figaro trilogy, first staged in summer 1792. His plays are a satire about lovers' misdoings and French society, and the rebellious themes, presented during the troubling times leading up to the French Revolution, created great difficulty getting them past the censors (and, indeed, contributed to the playwright having to flee from France). Once staged, the plays were enormously popular with audiences, including the aristocracy, despite their ...

Story0
In this delightful comedy, Count Almaviva finds his heart captivated by the enchanting Rosine. Yet, he fears that her affections may be tied to his wealth. Can the clever Figaro come to his aid? This play, the first in Beaumarchais renowned Figaro trilogy, was penned in 1773 but faced political and legal hurdles that delayed its debut until 1775. The Barber of Seville has inspired over five operatic adaptations, with Rossinis version being the most celebrated. The trilogy continues with The Follies of a Day or the Marriage of Figaro and The Guilty Mother. - Summary by Lynette Caulkins

Forerunner to the renowned operas, The Figaro Plays by Pierre Augustin Caron De Beaumarchais are a celebration of how intelligence and wit can bring any servant level with their aristocratic masters. Considered scandalous in their time, the plays went on to be adapted by Rossini (The Barber of Seville) and Mozart (The Marriage of Figaro) to become some of the most popular and acclaimed operas of all time. These original plays show us the stories behind these popular operas.

Le comte Almaviva, amoureux de la jeune orpheline Rosine, est prêt à tout pour l'arracher à Bartholdo, son vieux tuteur qui projette de l'épouser. Se déguisant pour tenter de mener à bien son projet, il tombe sur son frondeur d'ancien valet Figaro, qui va jouer l'entremetteur pour l'aider. Inspiré de l'"École des Femmes" de Molière, Beaumarchais utilise tous les procédés du comique - de caractère, de langage, du gestuel, de situation, philosophique, répétitif - afin de faire rire son auditoire.
