Synopsis: | This sparkling Brits abroad production set in the Hotel Seville on the Costa Brava is sure to amuse and entertain. Based on the original play by Beaumarchais but set in 2006, the storyline follows the antics and exploits of Figaro and the Count Almaviva to steal the hand of the stunning and scantily clad Rosine from under the nose of her jealous guardian who wants her for himself. Contemporary references, cunning disguises, comic songs and a swimming pool all add to the general confusion of the plot. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Beaumarchais, adaptation of The Barber of Seville | |||||
Here's a cheeky modern take on a classic of 18th century theatre that swaps the elegant interiors of Seville for down-market 21st century Benidorm. And the way Beaumarchais' densely packed language is replaced by a rip-roaring West of Scotland twang is pure dead brilliant. Based on The Barber of Seville, Christopher Deans' Cut to the Chase is aimed at youngsters. But I'll defy anyone over 20 not to enjoy the sheer pace and comedy of this show." | ||||||

Synopsis: | To help us forget the Mozart opera and see the play and its shrewd social critique afresh, Tara Arts has shifted the action from 18th-century France to 18th-century India. Here the Count becomes the Nawab; Suzanne becomes Rukhsana. The idea is that a similar sense of social upheaval prevailed in India. And while French drama had the tradition of commedia dell'arte, Indian drama had its own popular comic style in Bhavai. | |||||

Notes: | Original Playwright - Beaumarchais | |||||
Synopsis: | Writing a few years before the French Revolution, barely concealing himself in his hero, Beaumarchais pours his class rage into a stock-comic vessel that barely contains it under pressure. Three years after the happy ending ofThe Barber of Seville, its the valets turn to marry. But his master the Count has tired of his lovely Countess, and lusts for Figaros bride-to-be, Suzanne. He determines to revive the ancient droit de seigneurthe lord of the manors right to bed her. Figaro and the women concoct a counter-plot; the Counts page, Cherubin (Mozarts Cerubino) makes hash of it through his passionate crush on the Countess. The double/triple/quadruple misunderstanding yields one of the most perfect farce scenes of all time, featuring a chair and a closet, and one of the finest master-servant scenes, featuring a razor. The play, as great in its kind as the opera Mozart made from it, proclaims Figaro a better man than the Count and the women better humans than the men. This version restores two revolutionary passages that the author cut to save his liberty: a confrontation between the Count and his vassals in the final scene that anticipates the guillotine, and a searing indictment of sexual inequality by Figaros mother, Marceline. | |||||
