Description:
Santa Monica Civic Opera performance of Act 1 of “The Marriage of Figaro.” Figaro (portrayed by Roderick Risto) stands center and sings while Count Almaviva (singer Pryor Bowen), his page Cherubino (played by female singer Lou Ann Wyckoff), Don Basilio (Robert Mahoney) and several cast members portraying peasants listen. The aristocrats wear 18th century style attire – coats with deep cuffs, waistcoats (vests), breeches and stockings. Figaro wears a shirt with lace collar and cuffs. The peasant women wear full skirts with overskirts tied at the waist, peasant blouses covered with lace-up bodices, and caps covering their hair. The men wear coats, breeches and cravats. The setting is a sparsely furnished room in Count Almaviva’s palace, with ornately painted walls, an end table, chair and footstool. Balcony shot allows for views of the entire stage, musicians in and outside of the orchestra pit, and numerous audience members. Performed at Barnum Hall, Santa Monica.
