The Barber of Seville Tickets
The Barber of Seville Opera Tickets
Comedy and opera make for a delightful combination, as you’ll see firsthand when you buy The Barber of Seville tickets at TicketSmarter. Based on the 1775 French comedic play Le Barbier de Seville, the music for the opera was composed by Gioachino Rossini and Cesare Sterbini wrote the libretto. Although the show is widely regarded as a comedic opera masterpiece, the initial performance is recorded as a disaster. Debuted in 1816 at the Teatro Argentina in Rome, the show was met with hisses and boos from the audience, due in part to the fact that the performance itself featured several on-stage troubles.
Even though the first performance did not go well, The Barber of Seville tickets became a coveted commodity among fans after debuting in London and the United States. The show is a love story at heart, as the character Count Almaviva falls in love with a woman who is destined to marry another. Almaviva turns to the barber of Seville, who is none other than a man named Figaro. Figaro, of course, is a popular figure even outside the opera realm, as the song “Largo al factotum,” and its repetition of the man’s name has found its way into many facets of pop culture. Certainly, an evening spent with this funny and masterfully written opera is all but destined to be enjoyable.
