This performance is affected by Birmingham Hippodrome’s temporary closure. Unfortunately, The Marriage of Figaro is cancelled with no planned rescheduled dates. We will be contacting customers with ticket options over the coming weeks, please do not contact us direct as phone lines and email services are extremely busy. For further information, please click here.

Please note: The team will be dealing with a high volume of bookings, so we kindly ask all ticket holders to avoid contacting Birmingham Hippodrome directly to minimise incoming enquiries. Please bear with us during this time and thank you for your on-going patience.

It’s supposed to be the happiest day of Figaro and Susanna’s lives but will their wedding even go ahead? Count Almaviva is determined to seduce Susanna, but will his wife find out? Will Figaro be able to outwit his master, for the honour of his bride? Or will the young Cherubino confuse matters even more?

Through a series of twists and turns, The Marriage of Figaro will keep you guessing until the final scene, with Mozart’s sublime score brilliantly bringing the action to life.

WNO’s period-set production has all the ingredients of a classic opera. Elegant sets, opulent costumes and an exceptional ensemble cast combine to pay homage to one of the greatest comic operas of its time.

A co-production with Grand Théâtre de Genève

Sung in Italian, with English surtitles
