Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for most people.
The mood
Easygoing.
The pace
Unhurried and epic, at 2 hr 47 min.
What might put you off
  • It's long: 2 hr 47 min.
  • It's in Italian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

Stage director Emilio Sagi's production of the legendary Barber of Seville is enriched by a bright distribution. Maria Bayo returns to one of her signature role as Rosina, opposite Juan Diego Florez, the Rossini expert tenor. The title role is embodied by the Italian baritone Pietro Spagnoli, while Ruggero Raimondi and Bruno Pratico reconcile the audience with Don Basilio and Don Bartolo.
