Carmen Jones Tickets

As the Second World War rages, parachute maker Carmen Jones wages her own quarrel involving an airman and a boxer. Using the score from Georges Bizet’s opera Carmen, this adaptation by Oscar Hammerstein II resets the story with an all African-American cast and is the first major New York revival since its debut on Broadway 75 years ago.

Tony Award winner Anika Noni Rose ("Caroline, or Change;" "A Raisin in the Sun;" "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof") will play the title role in this production directed by CSC Artistic Director John Doyle ("The Color Purple") and choreographed by Bill T. Jones ("Fela!").
