Sempre Opera and Joburg Theatre Present: Carmen at 150 – A Compelling New Staging of an Operatic Icon
In 2025, Sempre Opera, in proud partnership with Joburg Theatre, unveils a compelling new staging of Georges Bizet’s timeless masterpiece, Carmen, commemorating its 150th anniversary with passion, artistry, and dramatic intensity. This production joins opera houses worldwide in honouring one of the most enduring works in the operatic repertoire.
Set in the sun-soaked streets of Seville, Carmen follows the fiercely independent gypsy whose defiance of convention and pursuit of freedom spark a tempest of love, jealousy, and fate.
With its unforgettable score—featuring the iconic “Habanera” and “Toreador Song”—Bizet’s opera continues to enthral audiences with its emotional depth and musical brilliance.
Directed by Riana van Vollenhoven, this fully staged production features the MUSAE Orchestra under the baton of Daniel Keet, returning from Italy to lead the musical direction. Performed in French with English subtitles, the production showcases a dynamic cast of local and international talent.
Join us on 20, 23, 25 & 27 July 2025 for this powerful tribute to 150 years of Carmen—a celebration of love, liberty, and the enduring legacy of one of opera’s most iconic heroines.
