Opera Orlando concludes its fifth-anniversary MainStage series in person and in grand style with Georges Bizet s fiery masterwork Carmen. This ever-popular opera captivates from its opening notes to Carmen s sultry and vivacious Habanera, to Escamillo s rousing Toreador song, and finally to Don Jose s beautifully tragic Flower Song.
Acclaimed stage director Sara E. Widzer makes her Opera Orlando debut with this original production that transports the traditional Carmen from Seville, Spain to 1960s Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The opera, presented in the Walt Disney Theater at Dr. Phillips Center, will mesh Bizet s gorgeous score sung in French with dialogue in a new Creole translation by Haitian linguist Dr. Jean-Elie Gilles.
