A staff member readies Symphony Hall's stage for Arizona Opera's Carmen.
After a successful run in Tucson, Arizona Opera brought Carmen to Symphony Hall in Phoenix. And Phoenix responded by selling out both Friday and Saturday nights' performances. 

The crew let us backstage before the show to catch the final preparations before curtain, including hair and makeup, finishing touches on the costumes, and a surprisingly joke-filled fight rehearsal.
