Ballet Flamenco de Barcelona presents a stunning new reinterpretation of Bizet’s Carmen, a vibrant production that reinvents the timeless myth through the power and passion of flamenco. This version pushes beyond traditional boundaries, bringing the story into the reality of the 21st century, where Carmen remains a symbol of freedom and female courage in a still unequal world. The narrative delves into the intense relationship between Carmen and the bullfighter Escamillo, exploring love, desire, and the protagonist’s tragic fate. Flamenco, in its most visceral form, becomes the perfect vehicle to convey this storm of emotions, accompanied by an innovative musical fusion that blends classical music, opera, jazz, and cante flamenco. The choreography merges the energy of flamenco dance with the elegance of contemporary movement.
