In
the approaching concert, Carmen, the flamenco artist will use castanets
to the strong rhythmic music that usually accompanies flamenco dancing.
The Opera crew helps her to get ready for this performance. Ken,
who works for the opera singers as a hairdresser and a make-up artist,
has a disagreement with Jons, (who are
both the stage designers) on the controversial topic of a proper fashion
that would comply with a style of Carmen’s performance. The Jons
want to emphasize a distinctive style that is characteristic of Carmen,
but Kenlikes some more extravagant solutions
that would go well with the stage set. Opinions are strongly felt and firmly
expressed by all those concerned. Carmen feels annoyed and confused. Fortunately,
a costume designer Kathy, arrives
to deal with the problem. She makes fortunate decisions that make Carmen
look exceptionally dazzling and radiant. She will be the center of attention,
after all. After the concert, Ken
will join Tom the drummer and Norman,
an opera performer, in their trip to the desert to attend the “Burning
Man” event)
