Praise

Based on the same play by Beaumarchais, the first part of the Figaro Trilogy, this is a different animal altogether from its more familiar cousin: A pocket opera that manages to make all its points with a cast of seven, a chamber orchestra and, in Artistic Director Eric Einhorn’s very appealing production staged in the Renaissance-style Fabbri Mansion on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, it was a sheer delight.

The cast, cavorted through director Eric Einhorn’s witty staging with unflagging energy.

On Site Opera’s latest operatic adventure is a hit! …Director and On Site Opera Founder, Eric Einhorn continues to display a genius for transforming sites into living, breathing immersive theatrical environments.

Eric Einhorn’s deft direction allowed sweet moments for the lovers and good, broad humor for the others, with Bartolo’s servants probably much like the help then. The effect was one of intimacy and ‘rightness’ for Paisiello’s, good-natured score.
