Pittsburgh Opera – LA BOHÈME
When a candle flickers, love sparks.
Set against the backdrop of bohemian Paris, La Bohème follows four impoverished artists surviving with little more than friendship, passion, and their love for art.
When Rodolfo, a poet, and Mimì, a young seamstress, meet, the two are drawn into a tumultuous and passionate affair with a love that can only be broken by death.
La Bohème will make you laugh, and bring you to tears, with its timeless story and captivating music.
Emotional and dramatic, it’s no wonder Puccini’s most celebrated opera has transcended the genre, inspiring both a ballet and the Broadway hit musical RENT.
Antony Walker conducts; Kristine McIntyre directs.
Showtimes include October 18th, 21st, 24th at 7:00 PM and the 26th at 2:00 PM.
These performances are sponsored in part by generous gifts from The Gailliot Fund and Drs. Athan and Lydia Georgiades.
