January 17 4:00 to 5:45 pm
From award-winning director Ben Lewin (“The Sessions”, “The Catcher Was A Spy”) “Falling For Figaro” follows a brilliant young fund manager named Millie (“Patti Cake$”, “Dumplin”), who quits her job and ends things with her long term boyfriend in order to fulfill her dream of becoming an opera singer — in the Scottish Highlands. She begins intense vocal training lessons with renowned but fearsome singing teacher and former opera diva Meghan Geoffrey-Bishop (Joanna Lumley). There she meets Max, another of Meghan’s students, who is also training for the upcoming “Singer of Renown” contest. The competition between Millie and Max gradually evolves into something different and deeper.
