Conductor: Orlando Jopling Director: Danielle de Niese
Wild Arts returns to the festival with The Marriage of Figaro after whirlwind successes in 2024 and 2025. It’s the wedding of the year but with mistaken identities, cheeky servants, and a Count with a wandering eye. Enjoy Mozart’s glorious music all the way from the fizzing overture through the heart-stopping beauty of ‘Dove sono’ to the jubilant finale. This is a fully staged production, directed by international opera star Danielle de Niese, with the Wild Arts chamber orchestra conducted by Artistic Director Orlando Jopling. Book early for a night to rival Glyndebourne in the beautiful setting of St Mary’s Arts Centre – the perfect summer treat.
Wild Arts takes opera to beautiful and intimate settings in the UK and Europe, in an environmentally sustainable way, according to the One Planet Living Model.
Duration: 160 mins approx. (including interval)
