OPERA SCREENING: CARMEN
Wed 15 July 2015, 8.30pm. Tickets £18.50
Live from the Ancient Theatre of Taormina in Sicily comes this stunning production of Carmen as part of the Festival Euro Mediterraneo.
Each summer, the Teatro Antico in Taormina is home to the Taormina Arts festival. Since its construction in 7th century BC, audiences have feasted their eyes on the views of the Ionian Sea and Mount Etna that provide a dramatic backdrop for this stunning arena stage.
Best known for his operas in a career cut short by his early death, Bizet achieved few successes before his final work, Carmen, which has become one of the most popular and frequently performed works in the entire opera repertoire. This event presents the opportunity to enjoy the classic opera on Scotland’s biggest cinema.
