"The Dentist of Seville" is a Sesame Street opera starring Placido Flamingo. In the play, he stars as the dentist who asks his Anything Muppet patient to "abre la boca" (open your mouth).

The title is a reference to the famous opera The Barber of Seville by Gioachino Rossini, but the music is taken from the classic Italian song "Torna a Surriento."
