Carmen is coming to The Beacon theatre. George Bizet鈥檚 Carmen, one of the world鈥檚 most popular operas, is coming to the Beacon theatre on Sunday Jan. 25 at 1 p.m. Carmen is set in Spain, and filled with familiar and instantly recognizable melodies.
Richard Eyre, who produced the well-received Marriage of Figaro earlier this season, is back with a mesmerizing production of Bizet鈥檚 steamy melodrama.
The show stars mezzo-soprano Anita Rachvelishvili, featured last season in Prince Igor, singing her signature role as the ill-fated gypsy temptress.
Carmen includes dancing, thievery, a bullfighter, gambling, passion, desire - and bloodshed.
It鈥檚 Spain, after all!
This is a show that you won鈥檛 want to miss. If you鈥檝e never seen an opera before 鈥� Carmen is a great place to start.
