Carmen Bizet

Approved

She was a force of nature. He got swept up.
Free, rebellious, and beautiful, Carmen is the most desired woman in town. Every man wants her, and every woman envies her. Sparks fly when Carmen meets the young soldier Don José, and they quickly begin a passionate affair. José is ready to sacrifice everything for Carmen: his reputation, his career, even his family. But when Carmen leaves José for the handsome bullfighter Escamillo, a tangled web of lust, obsession, and jealousy play out to fatal effect.

Carmen by Bizet, From (2022/2022), Directed by Rodula Gaitanou,, Conductor Daniela Candillari, Loretto-Hilton Center, St. Louis, United States
