Johan Inger's award-winning production of _Carmen _is an exhilarating journey that thrusts Georges Bizet's 19th-century opera into the modern world with a breathtaking display of athleticism and passion.
Created in 2015, Inger's contemporary retelling of Prosper Mérimée's 1845 novella is a darkly compelling story of the dangerously seductive Carmen, whose love affair with Don José ends in brutal tragedy. Broadening its gaze beyond its fiery heroine, Inger's _Carmen _is seen through the eyes of a boy bewildered by the ugly manifestations of machismo.
Using Georges Bizet's famous score, Inger has reimagined the classic opera, transporting it to dance in a fascinating production. Including sublime passages for soloists and duos and ensemble sequences of consummate virtuosity, _Carmen _brings you the heat of southern Spain in a powerfully unique production.
