Join us for a captivating performance of Puccini’s La Bohème: a timeless tale of love, friendship, and loss in Paris.
This intimate production by Opera Aeterna presents La Bohème in a beautifully staged setting, bringing Giacomo Puccini’s luminous score and heartfelt story into vivid focus.
Set in the vibrant yet fragile world of Parisian artists, the opera follows the tender love story between the poet Rodolfo and the seamstress Mimì. As their romance blossoms, it is shaped by friendship, youthful joy, and the quiet shadow of loss. Filled with soaring melodies, rich harmonies, and emotional depth, La Bohème remains one of the most beloved works in the operatic repertoire—intimate, poetic, and profoundly human.
Experience Puccini’s music up close in this moving production, performed by a talented cast of emerging artists under the stage direction of Viktoria Vizin. The production is guided by music director Irina Feoktistova, whose artistic vision shapes a cohesive and expressive musical experience.
Musical leadership is shared by conductors Catherine O'Shaughnessy and Leo Radosavljevic, whose dynamic collaboration brings vitality and nuance to Puccini’s score. The production is further enriched by the guidance of Andrea Silvestrelli, who supports the cast in Italian diction and stylistic interpretation, honoring the musical tradition of La Bohème.
Join us for an unforgettable evening of music, drama, and emotion.
