Overview
Opera by Georges Bizet with a libretto by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy, based on the work of Prosper Mérimée, presented at the VI Festival de Zarzuela y Ópera de Madrid at the Teatro Alcalá.
Carmen, Georges Bizet's opera, follows the story of a passionate and free-spirited woman whose character sets the course of the plot. The libretto, written by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy, is based on the work of Prosper Mérimée and revolves around passion, freedom and destiny.
Don José falls in love with Carmen, but when she turns her attention to the bullfighter Escamillo, that love turns into jealousy and obsession. This is the conflict that runs through the work from beginning to end and shapes every scene of the performance.
An orchestra and live singers perform on stage. The production is part of the VI Festival de Zarzuela y Ópera de Madrid, and the Teatro Alcalá, in Madrid, is the venue hosting this event.
