About the show
After falling deeply in love with Carmen, Don José sacrifices everything to be with her. But when she becomes infatuated with toreador Escamilo instead, Don José's love quickly turns to violent jealousy. The consequences are tragic. 

Carlos Acosta's version of this iconic story features a mix of classical ballet, contemporary dance, flamenco, and Cuban folk. Performed by his Havana-based dance company Acosta Danza, the production has an electric Latin twist. With additional Cuban music, it's set to Rodion Shchedrin's orchestration of Bizet's opera score. Expect to hear beloved classics like "Habanera", "Toreador Song", and "Seguidilla".
