New BLO production!
Sung in French with French dialogue and projected English translation.
Join us for the free Opera Preview talk one hour before curtain led by BLO’s Principal Guest Lecturer, Dr. Elizabeth Seitz.
Carmen and Don José crash into each other with a passion that's as much about will as it is about desire. At its premiere, Bizet's opera shocked and thrilled audiences. The thrill's still there in this new, highly theatrical BLO production.
See photos from the production.
