CARMEN 

{LIVE dance}

The World Theatre

 Melbourne City Ballet’s Artistic Director Michael Pappalardo re-imagines CARMEN  to Bizet’s famous score to bring to life an evocative opera ballet paying homage to the well known Spanish inspired tragedy.

CARMEN   tells the story of a city policeman Don Jose whose mother calls him to return home to marry childhood sweetheart Micaela but a chance encounter with the enchanting gypsy girl Carmen, leads them both into a relationship of both passion and destruction.

Pappalardo’s CARMEN  is designed to be a loud and bold affair, pulling the audience in from the first overture.

Choreographer: Michael Pappalardo
Music: Bizet

An ideal gift for a special person


“... the young dancers were sensational and gave terrific performances. Carmen was... proud, haughty and aloof in a fine performance with some dazzling dancing. Don Jose was passionately performed by Brendan Bradshaw in a splendid dramatic performance. Micaela was sensationally danced by Yuiko Masukawa... This was a most interesting version excellently danced...”
