You know the music, you just didn't know it was Carmen. 🌹

After 150 years of humming, sampling and parodying the "Habanera", this October hear it live, the way it was meant to be heard.

The opening line says it all: "L'amour est un oiseau rebelle" - love is a rebellious bird, wild and impossible to tame. That's Carmen in one lyric: she answers to no one, least of all love itself.

Bizet's CARMEN
17–24 October | Her Majesty's Theatre.

There’s something pretty special about spending a whole day at Her Majesty’s Theatre. ✨

This Saturday, August 29, you can see two State Opera shows in one day: INTO THE WOODS at 1pm and HANSEL & GRETEL at 7:30pm.

Opera is such a complete experience. Incredible voices alongside a live orchestra. Sets, costumes and lighting bringing another world to life. And then there are the unspoken intricacies and messages within the score - things that can be felt in a way that’s difficult to put into words.

You can book dinner on Gouger Street between performances, take a walk, grab a drink, and then come back to the theatre for another story.

But what we love most about our art form, is the permission to stop for a few hours and simply be immersed somewhere else.

August 29. Two shows. One very special day at the theatre. ❤️

Book a two-show package and we’ll see you on Saturday, August 29.
