Screening of the Royal Opera revival of Bizet's Carmen, directed by Damiano Michieletto and sung in French with English subtitles.
Storyhouse Cinema is screening the Royal Opera's revival of Carmen on Tuesday 10 November, starting at 7pm. It's part of their Stage & Exhibition on Screen programme, which brings performances from the National Theatre Live, Royal Ballet & Opera, the Berliner Philharmoniker and Exhibition on Screen into the city centre. Storyhouse is Chester's only independent cinema, and it runs a mix of independent films, blockbusters and world cinema alongside these screen screenings.
This particular production is Damiano Michieletto's take on Bizet's Carmen, sung in French with English subtitles. Ginger Costa-Jackson takes the title role, with Russell Thomas as Don José and Sesto Quatrini conducting. Michieletto's version casts a scorching light on the lust, violence and destructive desire that drive the story, and the screening runs about 3 hours 35 minutes, including an interval.
