Carmen in London
Carmen: a woman ablaze with passion, surrounded by men possessed by obsession and jealousy. One of opera’s most well-known characters sets herself on a road to tragedy when she meets Don José, a corporal in the army searching for love.
ENO favourite and twice Olivier Award-nominated Jamie Manton returns to direct Calixto Bieito’s beloved opera exploring the complex relationships between the sexes, now set at the tail-end of Franco’s regime in the 1970s. Bizet’s searing score features popular opera songs like the swaggering 'March of the Toreadors' and the sultry 'Habanera', which will transport you into the scorching heat of the Iberian peninsula. Don't miss this epic story of love, obsession, and seduction in one of the most celebrated operas of all time.

Terrible rendition of a beloved classicCarmen's signature colour is red and yet it was scarcely used in the grand scheme of the show. One of the lights began to flicker in Act III which really took away from the whole experience. I took my daughter for her birthday and suffice to say we shan't be coming back.

Excellent singing but inquire graphic actingBrilliant singing and acting but I found that the violence , the acting too erotic at times and the rape at the end unnecessary . That spoiled the show for me . Definitely for adults only
