North Carolina Opera Presents CARMEN in Raleigh

Bizet's Carmen ignites the stage in Raleigh with a passionate tale of desire and tragedy. The story follows a fiercely independent woman who draws a soldier into her orbit, leading to obsession, jealousy, and a devastating climax. Performed in French, audiences can follow the drama with English translations projected above the stage.

North Carolina Opera brings this classic opera to life with bold melodies and dramatic intensity. The production captures the fire and rhythm of Carmen's world, as the story unfolds from seduction to a devastating climax.
