About this event

The Royal Opera Carmen is on Tuesday 10 November 2026 at The Wharf, Tavistock, with doors at 18:00. Tickets start at £12.10, including the booking fee.

In a remote Spanish town, the free-spirited Carmen declares that any man she loves should beware. But even she is unprepared for what happens when she decides to seduce police officer Don José. Though initially uninterested in Carmen’s charms, Don José – against the wishes of his mother and of Micaëla, the woman who loves him – soon abandons his respectable career for a life of danger with Carmen. But she soon grows weary of Don José’s possessiveness, longing to return to a life of independence. When Carmen turns her attention to the celebrated toreador Escamillo, Don José’s jealousy and despair threaten to violently erupt. Carmen: Ginger Costa-Jackson Don José: Russell Thomas Micaëla: Adriana González Escamillo: Alexander Vinogradov Frasquita: Seohyun Go Mercédès: Ellen Pearson Sung in French with English surtitles

The Definitive Rat Pack with Nancy Sinatra

Boisdale of Canary Wharf · London

Table reservations from 6pm | Live Music: 8.30pm “Each performer is a master of his craft...”London’s Magic FM The Definitive Rat Pack returns to Boisdale with Stephen Triffitt as Frank Sinatra, Mark Adams as Dean Martin and Darren Charles as Sammy Davis Jr, joined by Hannah Lindsey as Nancy Sinatra. This is the Rat Pack done by performers who have lived with the material for years, not a loose swing set in dinner jackets. Triffitt and Adams starred in the West End’s The Rat Pack: Live from Las Vegas, and Darren Charles brings the Sammy Davis Jr sharpness: rhythm, pace, humour and that switch from charm to attack when the song needs it. Hannah Lindsey adds the Nancy Sinatra edge, taking the night from classic Vegas swing into 60s pop cool with "Bang Bang", "These Boots Are Made for Walkin’" and "Somethin’ Stupid". That contrast matters: Sinatra’s late-night phrasing, Dean’s relaxed swing, Sammy’s snap and Nancy’s cool, clipped delivery all sit in different corners of the same room. Expect "Fly Me to the Moon", "That’s Amore", "Mr Bojangles", "Bang Bang" and "Somethin’ Stupid", with a live band keeping the pace tight and the arrangements properly dressed. Boi...
