Mercédès in Carmen for English National Opera

  • London Coliseum Saint Martin's Lane London, England United Kingdom (map)

Siân will be making her role debut as Mercédès and covering the title role in Calixto Bieito’s production of Carmen for English National Opera at the London Coliseum.

Follow the ill-fated story of weak-willed Don José whose infatuation with the flirtatious, free-spirited Carmen forces him out of the army and lands him in prison. When Carmen’s passion fades, danger lies ahead as she turns her affection to the mysterious bullfighter Escamillo. With love turning to obsession Don José starts to see red.
