Did you know that W. A. Mozart loved Prague and spent a fair amount of time here? He also premiered several of his operas in the Estates Theatre and you are in luck, because you can see one of them, Le Nozze di Figaro in the very same venue where it was performed in the 18th century! 

Cupid’s arrows fly around as they please, binding the seemingly incompatible and dividing the seemingly inseparable. Mozart’s philandering Count Almaviva, his neglected wife Rosina, the Countess’s pretty maid Susanna and the crafty, albeit occasionally naïve, valet Figaro know all too well … 

Approximate running time: 3 hours 25 minutes, including 1 intermission (20 minutes) 

Language: In Italian, surtitles in Czech, English

Dress code: Formal or business formal (no jeans or sneakers, no backpacks or large bags). If you are planning to wear high heels, please note that you will have to walk on cobblestones from BB to the theatre (approx. 10-15 minutes).
