About This Show

Love can be a killer. Especially when the lover is Carmen, opera’s ultimate vixen. French composer Georges Bizet’s tragedy of obsessive lust is a spectacular evening of theater that seduces audiences with every note.

Bizet’s masterpiece is brimming with melody and local color–and so much more. Framed by a foreboding “fate motif,” this tale of fatal attraction deftly combines the suave grace of French lyric opera, the verve of opéra-comique, the visceral punch of verismo, and the sizzling heat of Spain. Most memorable of all is Carmen herself, whose subversive sexuality flouts the laws of both morality and music.

Sung in French with English supertitles
