THEATRE: Carmen Disruption
Whether you’re a fan of Bizet’s Carmen, British playwright du jour Simon Stephens, or just a night at a theatre with a damn fine bar (it really is), you need to get to The Almeida’s latest production. In a new reimagining of the classic opera, its characters are recast as disparate souls – a rent boy, a cab driver, a banker and a heartbroken student – all searching for love, truth and meaning on the streets of an opulent modern city. Bleak and beautiful, it’ll give you plenty to discuss over a drink at that bar…
