Efter en lång frånvaro återvänder KMFDM äntligen till Europa – och Stockholm! – med ett helt nytt album. Kritiker anser att KMFDM är ett av de första banden som tog industrial-musik till en mainstreampublik. Bandet använder heavy metal-gitarriff, elektronisk musik och både manlig och kvinnlig sång i sin musik, som omfattar en mängd olika stilar inklusive industrial rock, elektronic body music och till och med reggae och dub.

Figaro hjälpte greve Almaviva få sin Rosina, han gifte sig själv med sin Susanna, men hur gick det sen? Den tredje delen i Figaro-trilogin är en romantisk dramathriller från 2016 skapad av tonsättare Elena Langer. Figaro skiljer sig (Figaro gets a divorce) är uppföljaren på Barberaren i Sevilla och Figaros bröllop som nu spelas för första gången i Sverige. Med stor succé för de två första delarna är regissör Linus Fellbom tillbaka med den fartfyllda finalen!
