Puccini’s classic Bohemian love story is about youth, beauty, passion and heartache. This shimmering new production is set in snow-kissed Paris. They have love. They have art. They have each other. But you can’t eat poetry, and philosophy won’t warm a bitter winter. This classic opera about young artists caught between ecstasy and pain has inspired countless Bohemian love stories. Now it’s time for a fresh production of this timeless tale, created by our most exciting young artists. Puccini’s music captures feelings you can’t put into words. It swells with the intensity of first love, burns with jealousy, sighs in passion and breaks with sadness. This is opera to remind you of the power of love, of the beauty of youth, and the sheer joy of being alive.
