Richard Eyre’s hit production stars Elīna Garanča as the seductive gypsy of the title, opposite Roberto Alagna as the obsessed Don José. Carmen "is about sex, violence, and racism—and its corollary: freedom," the director says about Bizet’s drama. "It is one of the inalienably great works of art. It's sexy, in every sense. And I think it should be shocking." - Metropolitan Opera

Elina Garanca sizzles as Carmen and caused a sensation at the first performance. Roberto Alagna is a credible Don Jose. Purchase tickets at Fandango (http://www.fandango.com/carmenmetsummerencore_133473/movietimes?date=6/19/2013).
