Phyllida Lloyds La Boheme

The lives and loves of a group of young bohemians in Paris return to The Lowry in Opera North’s blockbuster production of La Bohème; one of the most popular and heartbreaking operas of all time.

La Bohème follows the passionate and moving romance between Rodolfo, a young artist, and Mimi, a seamstress. Falling deeply in love following a chance meeting, tragic circumstances force the couple apart, creating one of the greatest stories ever told of love and loss. Puccini’s music weaves a web of glorious melody throughout, speaking directly to the heart in some of the most beautiful music in opera, including Rodolfo’s great declaration of love and his famous duet with Mimi, “O soave fanciulla” (Oh, lovely girl).

 La Bohème is performed by a talented young cast of future international opera stars. The production is double cast, with sopranos Gabriela Istoc and Anita Watson sharing the role of ‘Mimi’, and tenors Sebastien Gueze and Ji-Min Park performing as ‘Rodolfo’.
