WORLD PREMIERE: CARMEN BY ANNABELLE LOPEZ OCHOA
Closing the season with fire and passion, Miami City Ballet presents the world premiere of Carmen, a new evening-length ballet by celebrated choreographer Annabelle Lopez Ochoa. Known for her bold storytelling and striking visuals, Lopez Ochoa brings her signature style to one of the most enduring tales of love, jealousy, and fate.
