This is a clip of a modern-day staging of Mozarts The Marriage Of Figaro, made in collaboration with Music Theatre London for BBC Two. With a Count modelled faintly on Alan Clark (of Diary fame), a beautiful National Trust property, an exercise bike, and an idiot gardener (played by Nigel Planer) the show was a roaring success. This is the opening duet Cinque, Dieci, Venti, Trenta where Figaro (Harry Burton) and his fiancée Susanna (Mary Lincoln) plan their new quarters before their impending marriage.

  • i'd love to have this! it was brilliant, never forgot it.

  • If there is any way, how one can get hands on this, please tell me! This is my favourite Figaro of all times, it is also the only one I've ever seen, which is actually funny and it was supposed to be an entertaining opera!

  • WHY O WHY is this not on DVD. The BBC as usual are so stupid/ thick that they don`t know a gold mine when they find it. If Mozart were alive today he would have approved, because as we all know the age may change but people don`t.

  • ahh wonderful! This is the first time I ever sat and listened to an opera and followed what was going on. I so so so want to get it on dvd!

  • I have this on a beat-up old vhs tape after recording it off the tv, would love it on dvd as it was excellent.

  • Brilliant. Loved Mary Lincoln as Susannah in this BBC production.

  • i actually can't believe this is on youtube, it's LEGENDARY!!! this is my favourite production of it. ever.

  • Count is up to four.. I'd pay a hefty sum for this.

  • Now we´re two

  • I've been looking for this forever! Do you know if there is anywhere you can buy/watch the whole thing?
