It’s Wednesday, Victoria and that means we’re already at the halfway mark!
If you’re look for things to do, the Victoria Royals are back in action tonight or if that’s not your thing, two locations are hosting a trivia night!
Here are 5 things to do in and around Victoria this Wednesday, October 12th:
Carmen
Instantly recognizable and utterly unforgettable, Carmen is the ultimate return to opera at a grand scale.
There is no one quite like Carmen, a brave and beautiful free spirit, eternally falling in and out of love. None can resist, and few understand, this willful and charismatic woman – least of all Corporal Don José. Succumbing to her seduction, he abandons his past life, and his reason, until he cannot let her go. When new love blossoms, toxic desire leads to dire consequences. Can destruction be avoided, or do we live and die by the hand dealt by fate?
Overflowing with audacious harmonies and irresistible melodies that have become an indelible part of popular culture, this opera is not to be missed!
