Premiere - Extraordinary ballet performance in two scenes
Whether you have read Prosper Mérimée's novel Carmen holding your breath, or have fallen in love with the Spanish rhythms and the music of Georges Bizet, when you hear of the character Carmen, one cannot remain indifferent, whether it inspires passion, intense feelings, tenderness and drama alike, feelings from another era! Haven't you heard of the Toreador and the bullfights? No problem, we'll tell you the whole story, in superlative music and dance steps, you just have to come to the performance hall, ready to be swept away by the story of our dancers and the beautiful music of Georges Bizet and Rodion Shchedrin.
Music: Georges Bizet - Rodion Shcedrin
Ballet scenario: Vlad Sebastian, based on the original story by Prosper Mérimée

The ballet Carmen has the same narrative and dramatic thread as the opera of the same name, easily recognizing the melodic themes of Georges Bizet, melodic themes and sound effects developed and adapted by Rodion Shcedrin for the ballet, a ballet title that holds the headlines of the great opera houses of the world, a title that will always fascinate the audience with its love and strength, its passion, its intrigues and betrayals but also its cruel revenges, strong but contradictory feelings at the same time.
