Approved

Carmen doesn’t play by the rules. She lives as the mood – and her instinct – takes her. When José deserts the army for her, he discovers that her freedom must always come first. Hispanic rhythms and seductive songs turn sour as obsessive jealousy leads to a brutal murder. Bizet’s opera remains as compelling and provocative as ever.

Running at Opera Holland Park until 24 June. #OHPCarmen

A fight for love and freedom

Carmen doesn’t play by the rules. She lives as the mood – and her instinct – takes her. When José deserts the army for her, he discovers that her freedom must always come first. Hispanic rhythms and seductive songs turn sour as obsessive jealousy leads to a brutal murder. Bizet’s opera remains as compelling and provocative as ever.

Carmen by Bizet, From (2022/2022), Directed by Cecilia Stinton,, Conductor Lee Reynolds, Sonia Ben-Santamaria, Opera Holland Park Theatre, London, United Kingdom
