Tomorrow marks the start of our research and development workshop for our latest re-imagining, Carmen. This follows on from our acclaimed Die Fledermaus (4 stars The Guardian & The Stage) and Cosi Fan Tutte (Best Opera Production Finalist, OffWestEnd Awards). Over the course of 3 days we will be exploring our version of the piece, with a new modern English libretto by Joanna Turner, and score for violin, accordion and bassoon arranged by Leo Geyer.
Our work will culminate in a free sharing at 4.30pm at Lantern Arts Centre. If you’d like to attend you can sign up for tickets here.
We will be joined by a wonderful cast:
Joining the team will be Accordionist, Ilona Suomalainen and Violinist, Henry Rankin as well as a Designer, Marina Hadjilouca and Fight Director, Natalia Bogdanova. Taking the helm as Director will be Baseless Fabric’s own Joanna Turner with Leo Geyer as Musical Director.
We can’t wait to get to work and watch our re-imagining come to life in the hands of this incredible team!
