ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
Carmen is irresistible from the first note of the electrifying prelude right to the end of the devastating finale. The immortal tale of the restless, free-spirited heroine and Don José, the soldier who’s drawn to her in a truly “fatal attraction,” Carmen has long been one of the world’s favorite operas. It returns this season in the company’s vividly colorful, powerfully dramatic production with dynamic Ryan Opera Center alumna J’Nai Bridges, who is now enjoying a dazzling career internationally, in the title role. Partnering with her is Charles Castronovo, one of the world’s most acclaimed tenors. You’ll be drawn to the drama like moth to flame as this alluring opera brings you along to its edge-of-your-seat ending.
