The Valentine Theatre

The story that shocked Paris at its premiere is now the world's most favorite opera. Carmen, opera's ultimate femme fatal, is a woman not afraid to pursue her heart's desires – whatever the consequences. A handsome soldier wins her affection and a glamorous bullfighter turns her head, but neither can tame her defiant spirit.

Carmen is generously sponsored by UBS with additional funding provided by the Clement O. Miniger Memorial Foundation

In the Classroom: Study Guide

Dear Educator,

Each study guide has a number of ideas for lesson plans. Feel free to pick and choose among the various ideas and use those plans that will be most valuable to you. Thank you so much for your Student Night reservation, and enjoy the study guides!
