Carmen
Approximate running time 3 hrs. 6 min.
"Carmen is about sex, violence, and racism‹and its corollary: freedom,” says Olivier Award-winning director Richard Eyre. “It is one of the inalienably great works of art. It’s sexy, in every sense. And I think it should be shocking.” Kate Aldrich sings the iconic title role, opposite Jonas Kaufmann as the obsessed Don José. Maija Kovalevska sings Micaëla and Mariusz Kwiecien is Escamillo.
