Tarrytown Music Hall, 13 Main St., Tarrytown, NY.
The theater is handicap-accessible.
Performed in French with English supertitles above the stage to further enhance the entire experience, the production will be fully staged with professional lead singers and orchestra. Maestro Jun Nakabayashi looks forward to providing the downbeat.

Taconic Opera’s production of Carmen will be a retelling of a theme familiar in all generations. Innocent young man (Don José) meets fiery young woman (Carmen). She charms him into leaving an adoring girlfriend, leads him astray into a life of crime, leaves him for someone famous, and refuses his pleas to return to him. His pain and jealousy cloud his judgement and turn his love into anger, leading him to do the unthinkable. Bizet’s music is undeniably exciting, spirited, memorable, and instantly likeable. It includes the famous Habanera and the March of the Toreadors.

Tickets
