TICKETS ON SALE NOW FOR "CARMEN" -- ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST POPULAR OPERAS

Last presented by the Company in 2000, Carmen is one of the most famous, most recognizable and most beloved operas today. The world swirls around the sensuous gypsy, Carmen. Drawn magnetically to her, Don Jose is in way over his head. Mistaking her flirtation for true love, he forsakes everything—the young Micaela, his career, everything—for her. When she dances into the arms of the dashing toreador, his fury is unleashed. And Opera’s bad girl isn’t about to back down!

With its riotous opening, its pulsating rhythms and its powerhouse lineup of operatic hit tunes, Carmen gallops to its shocking conclusion. Sung in French with projected English translations. So popular is Carmen that an extra performance has already been added!
