In The Metropolitan Opera's 2025 rendition of The Marriage of Figaro, we see Mozart's wit come alive under the baton of Joana Mallwitz in her Met debut. The atmosphere is just right, balancing the clever mischief with the deeper themes of love and class struggle. Michael Sumuel's Figaro is cunning yet relatable, and Olga Kulchynska as Susanna captures that blend of charm and tenacity beautifully. Joshua Hopkins as the Count brings a sleazy yet amusing dimension to the mix. There’s a lively pace to the production, and the practical staging choices enhance the comedic elements without overshadowing the music. It’s an engaging experience that feels fresh, even if we’ve seen it all before.
