Carmen Inside Out
Black Box Presentation
Appropriate for both large concert hall spaces and intimate venues, this feminist perspective on Carmen provides a meditation on the life and trauma that one woman has no choice but to confront. Chávez’s interpretation beautifully integrates dance and voice to unpack a compelling, current, and captivating intersection of where theatre and truth meet.
