SYNOPSIS:
Robert Tweten, conductor
Garnett Bruce, director

Four struggling bohemians—a poet, a painter, a musician and a philosopher—are living together in Paris when their lives are changed forever one freezing night. Their neighbor Mimì unexpectedly strikes the match of first love when she knocks at the door looking for a candle light. But as Mimì’s health declines, our four starving artists are sharply awoken to the harsh realities of life, in true operatic fashion.

With some of opera’s best-known music, Puccini captures the thrill of young love and the devastation of untimely loss in this timeless classic.

Rating: PG-13 for mature topics that may not be suitable for children.

Sung in Italian with English supertitles.
