Palace Opera & Ballet presents La bohème in conjunction with The Royal Opera. Screening for a limited season on March 1, 2, 3 & 6 2013.

 
 

Teeming with period detail, John Copley’s definitive production of this much-loved opera is traditional opera at its best. From a shabby garret to the bustling Café Momus to a snowy courtyard at dawn, this minutely observed panorama of 1830s Parisian life, beautifully designed by Julia Trevelyan Oman, conjures emotions and atmosphere ranging from joy to tragedy, in large-scale crowd scenes and intimate tableaux.

In Puccini’s depiction of the tender and ultimately tragic love between Mimì (Maija Kovalevska, Carmen in 3D, 2010) and Rodolfo (Dmytro Popov, The Tsar’s Bride, 2011), he achieved an immediacy, warmth and humanity that have rarely been equalled.
