A headstrong gypsy girl flirts with soldiers outside a cigarette factory in Seville. It's the opening scene of Carmen, the most popular, and most widely-performed of all operas. Bizet's masterpiece has it all. Music familiar to everyone, yet enduringly powerful with one smash aria after another. Characters are stripped from real life, engulfed by love, passion and jealousy. Vashon Opera captures the pomp and ritual of the Spanish bullring with an unusual performance in the round. Chorus and audience surround the action as Carmen and her spurned lover, Don José, meet their fate in as gripping a finale as any in opera. A production not to be missed!
