Carmen this Autumn.

Carmen highlights the colour and vibrancy of postcard Spain, with vintage-inspired costumes that evoke an era of bikers and shady police in a post-war setting of teen angst and rebellion.Caught between her desire for love and a longing for freedom, Carmen faces an impossible choice: Don José or the dashing bullfighter Escamillo. She's enigmatic and elusive: a femme fatale you can't forget.Don't miss this special opportunity to hear the famous Habanera and the Toreador Song - just as Bizet meant them - loud and live!
