Etno Ballet Paris and choreographer Dana Musa present a new, original interpretation of the world masterpiece CARMEN, set to the music of Georges Bizet.
The novelty of the show is that there is no classic love triangle, but instead of one Carmen, there are four! Four Carmen characters, four faces, four different bodies, all representing one character - the free-spirited, selfish, beautiful, modern, independent Carmen!
Don José, in love without memory, at first bathes in this multifaceted happiness of love and passion, having relations with four different Carmen, but gradually he feels that he is losing control, that he does not have the power he wants over this woman, that love alone is not enough, that he needs to dominate and be convinced that all parts of Carmen, her whole body and her whole life belong to him!
Last of all, he loses his common sense and reason and does not let go of Carmen's freedom, of her multiplicity, of her multiplicity..... he kills her, he kills all four different interpretations of her !
In addition to Carmen, there is another important female character in the play, the Goddess of Love, who guides and follows the love story of José and Carmen.
At the very last moment, the Goddess of Love turns away from José, condemning him to eternal loneliness, and sacrifices herself for the resurrection of Carmen......
