  1. Figaro, le gai, l'impertinent, le truculent Figaro, le plus célèbre des personnages de Beaumarchais entreprend, aux côtés de son maître, le comte Almaviva, une mission impossible : enlever, à la barbe d'un vieux tuteur méfiant, Bartholo, la jeune Rosine dont le comte est amoureux. Situations cocasses, imbroglios inextricables, déclarations d'amour enflammées... Le Barbier de Séville n'est pas seulement la dernière des comédies d'intrigue : Beaumarchais, en " ramenant au théâtre l'ancienne et franche gaieté, en l'alliant avec le ton léger de la plaisanterie actuelle " élabore une dramaturgie moderne par la conception et la qualité des dialogues.
