Rabbit of Seville is a 1950 Looney Tunes short subject, voted no. 12 on The 50 Greatest Cartoons list, and a member of The 100 Greatest Looney Tunes. The plot features Bugs Bunny being chased by Elmer Fudd into the stage door of the Hollywood Bowl, whereupon Bugs tricks Elmer into going onstage, and participating in a break-neck operatic production of their chase punctuated with gags, all to the tune of Rossini's overture to The Barber of Seville. Not to be confused with Woody Woodpecker's equally famous take on the song.

  • Rabbit of Seville is a Warner Bros. Looney Tunes theatrical cartoon short released in 1950. It was directed by Chuck Jones and written by Michael Maltese. The cartoon, in a plotline reminiscent of Stage Door Cartoon, features Bugs Bunny being chased by Elmer Fudd into the stage door of the Hollywood Bowl, whereupon Bugs tricks Elmer into going onstage, and participating in a break-neck operatic production of their chase punctuated with gags and accompanied by musical arrangements by Carl Stalling, focusing on Rossini's overture to The Barber of Seville.
  • "Rabbit of Seville" was produced by Eddie Selzer and directed by Chuck Jones in 1949. The cartoon starts off in the Hollywood Bowl with an orchestra warming up. This image of high culture is interrupted by gunshots from the hills. Soon the viewer sees Bugs Bunny run across the screen and into the backstage area of the Hollywood bowl. Elmer, close on Bugs' heels, bursts into the backstage area. He looks for Bugs, but he is unable to find him. When he checks the stage, Bugs pulls the curtains up. Elmer, not expecting to see a live audience staring back at him, is shell-shocked. Bugs, on the other hand, is a performer. He immediately appears on stage in barber get-up and sings. The rest of the cartoon entails Bugs tricking Elmer into getting brutal haircuts.
