    Mozart's 'Day of Madness' Will Close the 79th Season

    Get caught up in the deceptions and counter deceptions, skirt-chasing and bullying run rampant in the palace of the Count Almaviva. Set in Spain, this continuation of the plot of The Barber of Seville focuses on the debauchery that unfolds during a single “day of madness” in this grand folly of aristocratic courtship.

    The Florentine brings you a highly energetic production of Mozart’s melodies featuring a critically acclaimed cast. Grammy Winner, Daniel Belcher reprises his role as Figaro from the Florentine’s The Barber of Seville. – Adriana Zabala brings her critically acclaimed interpretation of Cherubino along with
    audience favorite tenor Frank Kelley of the Florentine’s two-time Grammy Award-winning Elmer Gantry (2010) and the world Premiere Río de Sangre (2010) return for this light-hearted, hilarious romp as Basilio.
