David Adam Moore: Barber and Cuddler

David Adam Moore: Cuddler?

One of the hottest men in opera will soon be heating up the Pacific Northwest with his “Largo al factotum” in Rossini's "Barber of Seville" with the Seattle Opera. We've already blogged about David Adam Moore's upcoming Friday and Sunday performances, so we want you to know that on Saturday, January 8, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. at McCaw Hall you can hear him sing the famous aria at a free event.

The opera company is hosting “The Barber of Seattle,” which will feature live music and a trio of competitions pitting hair stylists, barbers, and hairy participants against each other for prizes.

Real-life barbers will race against the music to give a group of bearded participants the smoothest, closest shave; hairstylists will compete to see who can give hair models the best new hairdo; and five bearded and/or mustachioed men will present their facial hair in an attempt to capture the title of “Seattle’s Best Beard.” The competition starts at 2 p.m.

Professionals who would like to show off their skills in the hairstyling or close shave competitions should contact Justina Schwartz at justina.schwartz@seattleopera.org or (206) 676-5564.


Those who would like to compete for the title of “Seattle’s Best Beard” should contact Tamara Vallejos at tamara.vallejos@seattleopera.org or (206) 676-5559.

Those who would like a free haircut or shave from one of our stylists or barbers, log in to Facebook and upload a photo that shows off your facial or head hair on Seattle Opera’s page, including a caption that answers the question, “Why do you want to attend The Barber of Seville?”
