The Schoolyard Carmen<\/h3><\/div>

by Shoestring Opera<\/h4><\/div>

Meet Carmen\u2014a spirited newcomer to Canada who loves to sing, dance flamenco, and be unapologetically herself. On her first day at a new school, she faces a challenge from the \u201ccoolest kid\u201d in class, Tory Adair. Instead of backing down, Carmen stands up to him, setting off a whirlwind of events. This lively adaptation of Bizet\u2019s classic opera tackles themes of bullying, difference, independence, and the healing power of the arts. With Bizet\u2019s bewitching, infectious music, Carmen\u2019s flamenco dancing, and the action-packed story,\u202fThe Schoolyard Carmen<\/em>\u202fhas proved to be Shoestring\u2019s most popular adaptation yet!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
