THE PLOT

Carmen captivates and provokes, disturbing the composure of everyone she encounters.

Sparks fly when she meets José, but as her passion cools, his turns to obsession.

Can he control his feelings or the woman who inspired them? Will Carmen give up her freedom for anyone?

This tantalizing new production takes place in a torrid South American landscape where small-town boredom can turn nasty.
