Le nozze di Figaro
Mozart’s iconic comedy is one of the world’s best loved operas. We now present it in a completely new production, made by the same creative team that created Il barbiere di Siviglia in spring 2024. The characters are older, less naïve, more world weary and decadent, but very human.

The heart of opera in Sweden and home to opera singers, the Royal Swedish Opera Chorus and the Royal Swedish Ballet, the country's only classical ballet company and one of the world's oldest. The Royal Swedish Orchestra is also one of the oldest in the world, founded in 1526. We offer both adults and children strong emotions, tulle, pointe and tragedy.
