About the Show
Boheme Opera NJ sets the stage ablaze with Georges Bizet’s
Carmen. Come back to Spain's volatile 1940s – when Franco ruled with an iron fist and the world was engulfed in war – for this torrid tale of lust and vengeance. It is within this inferno that Carmen lives – and passions burn. All men desired her – the dashing Corporal Don Jose; the fiery Lieutenant Zuniga; and Escamillo, the flamboyant toreador. But Carmen’s love and life were hers – and hers alone. Feel the heat of
Carmen – but stay in your seat or you, too, may be burned.
