Carmen – Le Ballet

Booking Required

Choreographed by François Mauduit, this bold reworking of Carmen transforms the classic into a feminist, revolutionary dance piece. Twelve performers deliver a physically intense, theatrical choreography that foregrounds female agency and collective strength. Stark staging and dynamic rhythms strip the story to its emotional core, alternating moments of fierce confrontation and intimate vulnerability. The production’s visceral movement language and ensemble precision reshape the myth with urgency and modern resonance.
