One of the world's most popular operas ever! The irresistible Carmen captivates the eyes of every man she meets, including the lovesick soldier Don José. As he forsakes his military duty, his fiancée, and the law, his admiration becomes uncontrollable obsession and Carmen leaves him for prestige and freedom. Bizet's famous music accompanies a lethal dance of lust, love, and survival that only stops when the struggle for freedom ends.

"Opera's guilty pleasure" (The Seattle Times) returns in a "gorgeous production" (Seattle Magazine) featuring Tacoma native, mezzo-soprano J'Nai Bridges, whose Carmen is "young, sexy, vibrant, and dangerous" (Opera Today), and the "bewitchingly lustrous" (The New Zealand Herald) voice of mezzo-soprano Sasha Cooke.

Available now with 2025/26 season tickets. Individual tickets will go on sale to the general public on Tuesday, June 17.
