Review of Carmen

Carmen (II) (2022)
1/10
What on earth was this?
19 July 2023
As it's heralded as Carmen, and clearly veering towards Carmen Jones, I am utterly confused as to what this mess was.

Our Music Master introduced us to opera with the Carmen Jones more modern version. How much pleasure we gained from singing "stand up and fight until you hear the bell" and "down by the walls of Sevilla lives my good friend Lilias Pasta"

I'm just so confused as to how this had none of the operatics. It was awful and yet I was SO excited to watch this. It was a mismatch of desultory exchanges and unexciting converstions.\

Hitherto I could not have envisaged a bad version of Carmen. But this is it.
