Carmen & The Milestone

30/01/2009

Following its highly acclaimed seasons in 2002 and 2005, the spectacular in-the-round production of Carmen returns to the Royal Albert Hall for a strictly limited season. There are just 12 performances, between February the 26th and March the 8th.

From the very first note of the much-loved overture to the final tragic chords, the very essence of Spain is brought to life in this acclaimed staging of the world’s most popular opera. The dusty atmosphere of the town square, the cool night air of the smugglers’ mountain hideout and the festivities outside the bullring in Seville are all vividly recreated in this powerful tale of lust, superstition and murder slowly unravelling with fatal consequences.

It’s one show you won’t want to miss – and there’s no better way to make the most of the occasion than staying at the Milestone. Recently voted Condé Nast Traveler’s Best Hotel in the British Isles in the magazine‘s 21st Annual Readers‘ Choice Awards, and only a couple of minutes from the Royal Albert Hall, it’s perfect for a wonderfully unforgettable night.
