Alastair Macaulay pans Covent Garden's Carmen production

Original: Alastair Macaulay: Covent Garden’s tediously unsubtle Carmen

Critic Alastair Macaulay has published a sharply negative review of the Royal Opera House's current Carmen at Covent Garden, calling the production tediously unsubtle. The piece takes aim at the staging's lack of nuance in handling Bizet's opera, adding to debate among operagoers about the merits of the Royal Opera's latest take on the repertoire staple.

Why now: A prominent critic's harsh verdict on a major new Covent Garden staging is drawing attention from the opera world.
