Carmen y el Destripador |
 21 Nov 17 / Mundo Clásico (Spanish) |
Bizet's masterpiece with a twist |
| 12 Nov 17 / Express |
A tongue-in-cheek revival of a radical reimagining of Bizet |
| 11 Nov 17 / The Stage |
Bizet’s score is given an almost jazzy spin |
| 7 Nov 17 / Independent |
The production and its values leave something to be desired |

The Royal Opera's young artists in Peter Brook's reduction of Bizet's opera |
| 6 Nov 17 / What's on Stage |
Tragedy undermined |
| 6 Nov 17 / Bachtrack |
It will take more than a surprising drum roll to overcome this show’s biggest drawback, emotional distance |
| 6 Nov 17 / The Times |
Opera on an unforgivingly small scale |
| 6 Nov 17 / The Guardian |
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery |
