The Barber of Seville
Galloway, N.J 鈥 The New Jersey Association of Verismo Opera is set to present a full-scale, traditional Italian production of Rossini鈥檚 鈥淚l Barbiere Di Siviglia鈥 (鈥淭he Barber of Seville鈥) on the main stage of 番茄社区app鈥檚 Performing Arts Center at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 9.
The show 鈥 a part of the PAC鈥檚 Dinner & Show Series 鈥 is considered the finest comic opera in existence. From start to finish, it is marvelously crafted, brilliantly inventive and uproariously funny. The libretto is based on Le Marriage de Figaro of Baumarchais. Verismo Opera promises a show with international soloists, beautiful sets and costumes, a chorus and orchestra of New Jersey area artists, and English subtitles projected above the stage.
Originally led by Metropolitan Opera luminary Lucine Amara, the New Jersey Association of Verismo Opera, a nonprofit organization, has delivered a rich, grand opera experience for performers and viewers for over 30 years. Verismo Opera has provided performing opportunities for musicians and artists through its semi-annual productions at New Jersey venues and concerts held in community settings.
