A heavily adapted and pointedly cut re-imaging of Bizet’s perennial opera, Carmen. Set in an intimate modern cabaret and stripped of grand opera components, the action focuses sharply on Don Jose and his extra marital affair with the beloved singer, Carmen. In a heartbreaking struggle, Don Jose grapples with his mother’s death, a guilty conscience and haunting memories from his combats in the Iraq War, all of which lead to murder.
