Description
La boheme is a passionate story of love among young artists in Paris. Mimi spends her days embroidering and her evenings longing for springtime. Literally in search of light, a match for her only candle, she instead finds happiness and friendship with a band of impoverished bohemians – a handsome poet, a philosopher, a painter, and a musician. Briefly, Mimi and Rodolfo make a place of love for themselves, until poverty prevails. Based on the lives of bohemians, including Puccini himself, La boheme rings true.La boheme will be sung in Italian with English supertitles. Run-time is approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes. Opera San Jose presents six performances of this beloved opera, opening in San Jose’s California Theatre on April 15, 2017, closing April 30, 2017. The California Theatre is at 345 S. First Street in downtown San Jose.
Introduction to Opera: General Director Larry Hancock will present a free 45-minute talk to ticket holders about the opera at the California Theatre before each performance of La boheme. The talk begins at 6:30pm prior to evening performances and at 1:30pm prior to Sunday matinees.
