"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.” Elīna Giaranča plays Carmen, Roberto Alagna
and Jonas Kaufmann share the role of the obsessed Don José, Barbara
Frittoli is Micaëla, and Mariusz Kwiecien is the matador Escamillo. Olga
Borodina reprises her own sultry Carmen in later performances. Yannick
Nézet-Séguin conducts.
Approximately 3 hrs and 34 min, including one intermission.
Ticket prices are $22 General (14-64 yrs) and $18 Senior/Child (0-13/65
yrs +)

Renée Fleming stars as Rossini’s sorceress,
opposite no fewer than six tenors. Mary Zimmerman returns to direct,
bringing her fine-tuned theatricality to a work she describes as “a buried
treasure, a box of jewels.”
The fanciful story of the sorceress who enthralls men in her island prison
of sensual delights, Zimmerman says, “has an epic, enchanted quality and a
tremendous visual element.”
Approximately 3 hrs and 54 min, including two intermissions.
Ticket prices are $22 General (14-64 yrs) and $18 Senior/Child (0-13/65
yrs +)
