NCPA Production of Bizet's Opera Carmen

Date: Feb 27-March 2 - 7:30 pm

Venue: National Theater for the Performing Arts

Price: 100-880 yuan

Originated from the novel by Prosper M��rim��e, the opera Carmen was completed in the autumn of 1874. It was the last work of Georges Bizet, and also is the most popular opera on the stage in the world until now. Bizet, through his music, told us a tragic story behind brightness, and depicted the optimistic, straightforward but wild personality of a Gipsy girl, Carmen. The opera discloses the bald-faced passions, describes the eternal confrontation between men and women, shows the ruthless but beautiful life, and proves the perpetual co-existence between love and death.
