Roh The Marriage Of Figaro

threat and horror

A count makes unwanted romantic advances towards his female servant, who is unable to reject him outright due to her position. In one sequence he catches her in a faint and starts to move his hand towards her chest before she wakes, though there is no focus on the action. Several scenes feature references to the Count's intention to exercise a ‘feudal right’ discreetly implied to be droit du seigneur, and a short interview with music director Sir Antonio Pappano during the interval clarifies that the woman has genuine concerns that she may be ‘forcefully taken’; nevertheless, the tone of the scenes themselves is comic and light, and the heroes are consistently able to outwit the count and foil his seduction attempts.

sex

Occasional mild sex references and innuendo include undetailed references to adultery and promiscuity. There is also a mildly suggestive moment in which a man playfully climbs on top of a woman as she reclines on a bed.

additional issues: A woman slaps a man, and in another scene a jealous husband briefly raises his hand towards his wife as if intending to strike her, though he does not do so. There is also infrequent use of very mild bad language (e.g. ‘hell’, ‘God’).
