Synopsis
A French courtier, secret agent, libertine and adventurer, Beaumarchais (1732-99) was also author of two sparkling plays about the scoundrelly valet Figaro - triumphant successes that were used as the basis of operas by Mozart and Rossini. A highly engaging comedy of intrigue, The Barber of Seville portrays the resourceful Figaro foiling a jealous old man's attempts to keep his beautiful ward from her lover. And The Marriage of Figaro - condemned by Louis XVI for its daring satire of nobility and privilege - depicts a master and servant set in opposition by their desire for the same woman. With characteristic lightness of touch, Beaumarchais created an audacious farce of disguise and mistaken identity that balances wit, frivolity and seriousness in equal measure., The sparkling plays about the scoundrelly valet Figaro, used as the basis of operas by Mozart and Roissini A highly engaging comedy of intrigue, The Barber of Seville portrays the resourceful Figaro foiling a jealous old man's attempts to keep his beautiful ward from her lover.

    I must say from the very beginning of this transaction that everything went smooth. The seller gave me a good quality product for a great price that was brand new and appeared to be better than what was pictured. I plan on purchasing more products in the near future from this seller. The product was shipped and packaged with care and love. Magnificent communication and all of what I said makes this seller a great asset to the eBay community as well as the marketplace.

    The seller was incredibly communicative and was willing to lump together multiple items I'd purchased to combine shipping, which was greatly appreciated. The item itself was in perfect condition, looks better than in the photo, and was packaged well to avoid any damage during shipping. It arrived quickly and without any issues! Excellent Seller, Goes the Extra Mile. Smooth Transaction, Shipped Very Quickly, As Advertised; Good Price; Well Packaged & Delivered Within a Few Days. A+
