Show details
Introduce your students to the magic of opera through Oz Opera's delightful production The Barber of Seville, returning to Vic schools in 2013 by popular demand.

A serious case of love at first sight is a big problem for Count Almaviva. Enter the resourceful barber named Figaro, who cleverly solves everyone’s problems – for a price.

Secret letters, cunning disguises and all sort of confusions will delight young audiences as the boy gets the girl and Figaro gets paid! Rossini’s The Barber of Seville is one of the most popular operas ever written.

Featuring professional singers, colourful costumes and an enchanting set, this fully-staged opera has been devised by Opera Australia especially for primary students, and is supported by curriculum-based Teachers's Resource Material.
