Carmen
Based on the world’s most popular and frequently performed opera CARMEN by Georges Bizet.
1820, Seville, a pulsating town of sailors and small-time crooks. Young assistant Salvador to the gifted knife grinder Antonio encounters captivating gypsy girl Carmen. Her rapturous beauty and independent spirit set the town abuzz, but Antonio’s mystical ability to glimpse the future in sharpened blades foretells a tragic fate for Carmen at the hands of soldier José. With unwavering resolve, Salvador musters an eclectic band of misfit street kids, led by the spirited Belén, to challenge the unyielding threads of destiny and protect Carmen from inevitable doom.
This thrilling contemporary adaptation unfolds as a gripping odyssey through enigmatic encounters, rapturous love, and soul-stirring sacrifices, igniting the ancient city’s shadowy alleyways in a symphony of raw emotions. Seville's vivid tapestry becomes a dramatic canvas where youthful courage clashes with prophetic shadows, reimagining Bizet's timeless tale of passion, jealousy, and defiance against fate with fresh intensity and emotional depth that captivates modern audiences.
