Highlights from On Site Opera's 2015 production of "The Barber of Seville" by Giovanni Paisiello’s at the Fabbri Mansion (House of the Redeemer.)more informa...

In 2015, On Site Opera embarked on The Figaro Project, a three-year cycle of lesser-known operatic adaptations of French playwright Pierre Beaumarchais’ (1732-1799) famed trilogy of Figaro plays: The Barber of Seville (1775), The Marriage of Figaro (1784) and The Guilty Mother (1792). The Figaro Project aimed to reacquaint audiences with their favorite Beaumarchais’ characters in unexpected and new ways in non-traditional venues across New York City.

On Site Opera launched The Figaro Project with a new production of Giovanni Paisiello’s The Barber of Seville (1782). With a libretto by Giuseppe Petrosellini, Paisiello’s Barber stays true to its Beaumarchais roots, focusing more faithfully on the love story between the Count and Rosina and less on the Barber’s antics. After its premiere, the opera quickly became a staple of the repertoire and inspired a young Rossini to write his own version. On Site Opera brought the love story to the opulent Fabbri Mansion (House of the Redeemer) on New York City’s Upper East Side. The production was updated to the early decades of the twentieth century (when the Fabbri Mansion was built) and staged in the mansion’s outdoor courtyard and charming library.
