Description
Puccini's timeless tale of idealistic youth and heartbreaking loss, set in 1920s Paris. Young artists fall in love and fall ill, and the price of the Bohemian life can exceed owed rent. Puccini's iconic score makes it easy to fall in love alongside Mimì and Rodolfo, even as the story reminds us that living exclusively for art and love has its costs.
