Sevillan parturi eli Turha varovaisuus: Komedia neljässä näytöksessä
Produced by Tapio Riikonen
"Sevillan parturi eli Turha varovaisuus" by Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais is a comedic play likely written in the late 18th century. This work revolves around themes of love, deception, and the clever machinations of its central characters, particularly Figaro, the witty barber and schemer, who aids Count Almaviva in winning the heart of Rosina, the ward of the jealous doctor Bartholo. The play is filled with humorous dialogue and situations that highlight the social dynamics of the time. At the start of the play, we are introduced to Count Almaviva, who is infatuated with Rosina, but he must disguise his identity to pursue her without arousing the suspicions of her guardian, Bartholo. Figaro, the barber, soon enters, bringing his exuberant personality and clever wit into the mix. The opening scenes unfold in the streets of Seville, revealing Almaviva's plans and Figaro’s enthusiasm for helping him succeed in his romantic pursuits. The characters’ interactions set the stage for a lively plot filled with schemes, misunderstandings, and comic relief, establishing a foundation for the subsequent comedic events.
