while there are many wonderful parts of Jonathan Miller's production of Nozze at the Met I think the best part is little Rosina Jr. who periodically pops in and sits onstage for a bit.

the best part though, is that she gets brought onstage for Ricevete, o padroncina and stays for the rest of the third act. and yes, this does mean she watches the passive agressive argument going on between her parents, as well as Barbarina's, "remember what you said when you kissed me?"

but you know, I think watching your parents fight adds character

I’ve seen so many weird productions of this, why is it I haven’t found one where she says “No” and kicks him out.
