I watched this version of Mozart's most famous opera for the 3rd time tonight.



The dusky russkie playing Susanna, trying to evade the lusty clutches of the count in the convoluted chicanery, is a knockout and the imaginative choreography distinguishes this production

I first encountered him in this earlier version, which has double subs (English + Italian) which makes it easier to sing along karaoke style during the more famous arias



I also found a new version has popped up on the tubes a year ago so I shall give it a spin. The Figaro Adam Maxey does not seem to shine very brightly on a first quick flick through the highlights but the svelte dark skinned Susanna is a cutie
