Get ready to be transported into the heart of art and passion with Puccini's iconic masterpiece, La bohème. Set in 1830s Paris, this romantic saga of impoverished artists and their loves will capture your heart and mind. In commemoration of the 100th anniversary of Giacomo Puccini's death, Florida Grand Opera presents a tribute to the master of opera.
Starring Italian tenor Davide Giusti in his American debut as Rodolfo, alongside soprano Rebecca Krynski-Cox returning as Mimì, the production promises riveting performances. Baritone Craig Verm makes his FGO debut as Marcello, while first-year Studio Artists Sara Kennedy and Taylor-Alexis DuPont share the role of Musetta. Under the direction of FGO's director of artistic operations, Matt Cooksey, the magic of La bohème unfolds through beautiful voices and extraordinary acting, as well as through innovative stage design and magnificent costumes. A visual and musical experience captures the essence of living the life of a bohemian that will leave you breathless: love, friendship and the beauty in art despite adversity.. Puccini’s La bohème is one of the most famous operas ever written, following the unforgettable story of two young, bohemian lovers in Paris. With a great love story comes a beautiful score, including arias like Musetta’s Waltz and ‘Yes, they call me Mimì’ (Si, mi chiamano Mimì).
When young poet Rodolfo meets seamstress Mimì, it’s love at first sight. But faced by the cruel realities of poverty and ill health, will the flame that burns between them flicker and die? Or will the timeless strength of their youthful passion withstand every trial and tribulation that life can throw at them?
A classic tale of tragic romance, La bohème is a great opera for beginners and regulars alike..
