Georges Bizet

CARMEN

Libretto by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy

FEBRUARY 06 - 11, 2010
 
 

 

 

One of the most popular operas of all time, Carmen "is about sex, violence, and racism - and its corollary: freedom," says Olivier Award-winning director Richard Eyre about his new production of Bizet's drama. "It is one of the inalienably great works of art. It's sexy, in every sense. And I think it should be shocking." Elĩna Garanĉa plays the seductive gypsy of the title in her role debut, opposite Roberto Alagna as the obsessed Don José.
