How do you reinvigorate opera for today's audiences whilst giving emerging young artists the chance to shine?
For the internationally acclaimed Australian baritone Peter Coleman-Wright AO the answer is simple. You reduce an epic opera to an hour and tailor it to the rising talents at Pacific Opera, where Coleman-Wright AO is Guest Artistic Director.
Pacific Opera will do exactly that when it joins forces with Willoughby Symphony Orchestra for its first 'Pocket Opera' staging of Mozart's comic opera The Marriage of Figaro at The Concourse in Chatswood on Saturday 27 March 2021.
Pacific Opera plans to set its version in the 1920s to convey a strong sense of the social divide and conflict, a world explored in the popular TV series Downton Abbey. 'The opera leans well with the concept of upper and lower classes.'
Ultimately, The Marriage of Figaro is one of the great opera masterpieces and audiences respond to its pranks and pitfalls as well as its well-known arias and sparkling score.
