Carmen
by Butler School of Music

Apr. 22 - May. 01, 2022
Fridays, Sundays

 

Set in southern Spain, this four-act nineteenth-century opera tells the story of Carmen, a seductive cigarette factory worker whose "heart is free as the air". She is pursued by Don José, a naive and possessive soldier, who chooses to abandon his childhood sweetheart and relinquish his military duties in favor of Carmen's tempting allure. But before long, his jealousy casts an ominous shadow and Carmen's freedom is jeopardized. Against a sumptuous Spanish backdrop, Bizet explores common life and the desires of the heart in this thrilling, beloved masterpiece. 

In French with English surtitles
