Carmen
Celebrated worldwide, Carmen remains an unmissable opera that inspired a legend. Bizet’s Carmen is centered on the passionate and free-spirited Carmen, a seductive cigarette factory worker who lives by her own rules. Her love triangle with soldier Don José and bullfighter Escamillo leads to jealousy, betrayal, and tragedy. Carmen’s fierce independence and tragic end make it a compelling tale of love, obsession, and fate.
