We were totally impressed to find a pop-up band playing in the square just outside our flat!
The expats turned up as knew the guitarist - a good band who just decided to practise and run an impromptu performance for the night!
There are more videos, but Ryan was way more into cutting them up...
The stage was still there the next day, and we got super lucky to catch the Opera Carmen! (A modernised version)
I had been looking into this recently, as Prosper Mérimée is from Ronda and wrote the novella which inspired Carmen, and someone had send me a few clips of the opera with English subtitles.
We didn't watch it all, but I was completely made up! Next mission is to find it somewhere and see the whole thing, preferable with a storyline in English.
People in London would pay so much to see this kind of thing. Feeling super lucky!
Much love!
