How did we come up with the idea of adapting Carmen into a Hong Kong character? Our adaptation reimagines Bizet’s iconic opera as a story about a Hong Kong woman and her unwavering pursuit of self-actualisation and her place in the world as a modern woman.
Rather than being fixed in a specific historical moment, the story is set in an imagined future, a few years ahead of our present. The theatre will be turned into a contemporary and immersive environment that integrates space, light and video.
This May, we will be featuring our founders, Rumiko Hasegawa and Lucy Choi and would like to invite you to hear their story of how More Than Musical makes a 146-year-old opera interesting and relatable to the Hong Kong audience. Join us at our free zoom event now!
