Ellen Kent and Amphitheatre Productions present

Carmen

by Bizet
The Anvil
Sat 25 October 2008, 7.30pm

Carmen as you have never seen it before is restaged in a bullring for a new and spectacular twist to Bizet’s famous and seductive opera.

The Anvil will be transformed into a Spanish spectacular reminiscent of the real bull rings in Spain with flamenco dancers, bull fighters and a brass band parading through the venue into the bullring to start this must-see performance.

There may also be an opportunity for some members of the public to watch the performance from the staged bullring.

Amphitheatre productions will bring you a touch of Arena Di Verona and the famous Seville bullring. This magnificent traditional production will be performed by handpicked international soloists alongside the full Chisinau National Philharmonic Orchestra and Chorus in an amphitheatre setting.

Carmen guest stars international flamenco dancer Sam Quy*, as seen at the Royal Opera House, accompanied by the well known Spanish guitar player Fernando de Sevilla*.
