Opera Theater Rutgers presents Carmen, at the New Brunswick Performing Arts Center.
Carmen by Georges Bizet scandalized audiences when it premiered in 1875 at Paris’ Opera Comique. Critics and operagoers alike were taken aback by the opera’s unconventional heroine, who defied societal norms with her independence, sensuality, and disregard for authority. Presented by Rutgers Opera and performed by the Rutgers Symphony Orchestra, this new production, conducted by Kynan Johns and directed by Colm Summers, aims to find fresh relevance in Bizet’s critique of patriarchy.
