The Car Man at Royal Albert Hall | Full Trailer 2021

Fasten your seatbelts...The Car Man is back!
As part of the Royal Albert Hall 150th anniversary celebrations, we will be bringing the multi-award-winning production of The Car Man live on stage at the Royal Albert Hall!
A dance-thriller based on Bizet's beloved Carmen, The Car Man will be completely reimagined for the gladiatorial arena of the Royal Albert Hall, adding a frisson of danger as the dancers perform throughout the auditorium amid stage designs by Olivier and Tony award-winner Lez Brotherston.
Featuring an expanded company of 65 dancers and musicians, a live orchestra and epic new designs, these 14 performances of The Car Man are a unique opportunity to see this extraordinary production as you’ve never seen it before. The 19th Century Spanish cigarette factory becomes a greasy garage-diner in 1960s America where a small-town's dreams are shattered by the arrival of a handsome stranger. Fuelled by heat and desire, the inhabitants are driven into an unstoppable spiral of greed, lust, betrayal and revenge.
Matthew Bourne’s vivid storytelling combines with one of the most passionately dramatic scores ever written, with musical arrangements by Terry Davies featuring Rodion Shchedrin’s Carmen Suite (after Bizet’s Carmen), to create a dance event like no other.
The Car Man will ignite your senses and leave you breathless - don’t miss it in summer 2021!
The Car Man contains scenes of a sexual nature, brief nudity, strobe lighting and gunshots. Age guidance 12+.

So where do people think the best view points for this will be. Not sure whether to go high and look down on the spectacle or choose the stalls and get better close up but maybe miss the full effect of the 65 dancers. Either way it's a fantastic show on a normal stage letting Matthew and his team have a whole arena floor to use should raise it to a new level. Now which role is Dominic North playing....
