St. Pete Opera: CARMEN

St. Petersburg Opera Company's mainstage season continues with Bizet's CARMEN at the Palladium, with performances June 8, 10, 13, and 15. Times vary according to performance.

The wild, free-spirited Carmen seduces a naïve soldier, Don José. After he deserts his regiment and turns smuggler for her, she tires of him and pursues the dashing bullfighter Escamillo. Maddened by jealousy, Don José confronts the fickle Carmen – will she survive his rage?

Sung in French with English subtitles projected above the stage.
