But without The M arriage o f Figaro, some say the French Revolution may never have happened. Say whaaaaaaat? It’s true. Louis XVI banned the original three-part play, penned in 1784 by Pierre Beaumarchais, much to the chagrin of Marie Antoinette. The spotlight on the shortcomings of rank and privi lege infuriated French nobility. When a sprightly young composer named Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart got hold o f the play a couple years later, it continued its nerve-racking trajectory, this time as an opera buffa— a comic opera— in four acts that irked the Austrian monarchy. After hundreds of years and hundreds more spirited productions, M ozart’s The M arriage o f Figaro returns with the Portland Opera, what also marks the return o f baritone Daniel Mobbs in the title role. Mobbs, whose recent work with the company includes his 2006 turn as Leporello in Don Giovanni , has garnered acclaim in the part be fore— The New York Times gushed that his performance was “robust and sassy.” Well now... Audiences are invited to join general director Christopher Mat- taliano after each show for Back Talk Sessions with a variety o f freshly off-stage performers, directors and conductors. You can’t get much closer to the action without actually being in the cast.
