Singer

She’s the woman who turns every head — and breaks every rule.
Bizet’s Carmen returns in a bold new production that pulses with danger, desire, and defiance. Emerging Director Laura Hansford, who is definitely one to watch, reimagines this operatic classic diving deep into the revolutionary heart of its iconic heroine. Carmen refuses to be owned, and her fiery spirit ignites a tragic love story that still burns with relevance today.

Carmen

Her Majesty's Theatre

It’s the last day of Don Giovanni’s life, but he doesn’t know that.

For opera’s own Casanova, it’s just another day of pleasure seeking. Seducing a bride on her wedding day. Breaking into a woman’s bedroom in the dead of night. Killing her furious father.

Even before the curtain rises, Mozart reveals Don Giovanni’s fate. An earthshattering chord from the orchestra signals the gates of hell clanging open. The scoundrel’s debauched days are at an end.
