La bohème
The Paris of love and art. A poet, a painter, a musician and a philosopher. Living hand to mouth in a freezing garret. Christmas cheer and a heart won by the girl next door. The tragedies of love and poverty.
Puccini’s best-loved opera is touching, comic, realistic and romantic, true for any time in which deep bonds can flower in the face of adversity.
Sung in Italian with English Subtitles.
La bohème...In Focus is a free online introduction to the opera taking place on 16 November at 7pm. Booking details to be announced.
