Carmen
PRODUCTION POSTPONED
Pacific Opera is actively working to reschedule performances and we encourage you to hold on to your ticket(s) as we work to confirm new dates.
Bewitching, wilful, earthy, Carmen is a woman who dictates her own terms, whatever the cost. When she fixes on Don José as her next (but certainly not her last) lover, the naïve young soldier cannot deal with his own jealousy and possessiveness. With its beguiling heroine and music that is familiar the world over, it is no wonder that Carmen is one of the most popular operas of all time.
The Book of My Shames
April 30 to May 1
A one-man hybrid music-theatre piece, co-created by Isaiah Bell and Sean Guist, with Robert Holliston on piano.
