The Teatro Trieste Verdi is set to open its 2025-26 season with “Il barbiere di Siviglia” and Le Nozze di Figaro,” two productions deliberately interwoven within the calendar to enable audiences to experience both works over the course of a single weekend.
The project pays tribute to the figure of Figaro, the revolutionary character conceived by Beaumarchais in his theatrical trilogy. The demanding task of creating two productions and two independent stagings—yet intertwined in meaning and temporal continuity—has been entrusted to Pier Luigi Pizzi, together with his outstanding creative team led by Massimo Pizzi Gasparon Contarini.
Rossini’s work will star Alessandro Luongo, Annalisa Stroppa, Marco Ciaponi, Marco Filippo Romano, and Abramo Rosalen, while Mozart’s work will star Simon Alberghini, Carolina Lippo, Ektaterina Bakanova, Giorgio Caoduro, Paola Gardina, and Andrea Concetti. Both casts will be joined by the Orchestra and Chorus of the Fondazione and will be conducted by Enrico Calesso.
Rossini’s opera will open on Nov. 28 and Mozart’s will open on Nov. 29.
