CARMEN | ST PAUL'S OPERA


  • St Paul's Clapham Rectory Grove London, England, SW4 0DZ United Kingdom (map)

In a Spanish prison, Carmen declares that any person she loves should beware. But even she is unprepared for what will happen when she decides to seduce Don José, a prison guard who initially appears uninterested in her charms. Don José soon abandons his sweetheart Micaëla and his life for Carmen, and joins her and her smuggler friends in the mountains. But Carmen quickly wearies of Don José's possessiveness. When she turns her attentions to the dashing toreador Escamillo, Don José's jealousy erupts into violence and Carmen’s insistence on maintaining her freedom comes at a terrible cost.
