The Marriage of Figaro 

“this Figaro has the right ingredients … The Marriage of Figaro more than holds its own”
Nick Kimberley, Evening Standard

“Sensitive staging of Mozart‚s masterpiece … This production makes one hang on every word, on every vocal phrase to fathom motives and emotions … Julie Unwin’s embattled yet noble Countess, singing with a gleaming tone, is an impersonation rich in nuances … Catrin Johnsson is an incomparable Cherubino … Ian Page conducts with flair and panache … A glorious experience”
David Blewitt, The Stage

“Bateman proved an entrancingly pretty and sweet voiced Susanna … Under Ian Page’s sprightly direction, Mozart’s immortal score sparkled … ETO presents a broadly traditional staging that will surely delight newcomers to this ever-astonishing masterpiece, while giving ample pleasure to seasoned Figaro watchers.”
Hugh Canning, The Sunday Times

“very beautiful, expert and enthusiastic singing and orchestral playing, full of infectious enjoyment and a lovely balance of voices.”
Martin Black, Penman Black Creative Industries Consulting
