"The Marriage of Figaro" tells a tale which has grown almost commonplace in the television soap opera world. Figaro, a valet in a rich Count's household, is planning to marry Suzanna, the servant to the Countess. The Count makes amorous advances toward Suzanna, and intends on acting upon his feudal right to bed her before her husband does.

The plot twists and turns with mistaken identities and cross-dressing, primarily on the part of Cherubino, a young male page, played brilliantly by Petya Tsoneva, a woman. With so many plot turns, it is liable to make one dizzy.
