Inspired by Henri Murger’s novel Scènes de la vie de bohème (1851), this popular opera wins over audiences again and again with its simple but touching love story.

What they lack in material possessions and money, they make up for with their affection for each other. But when Mimì is struck down by a sudden illness, Rodolfo is faced with a terrible choice that might tear them apart.Puccini’s La Boheme is one of opera’s most famous works, performed across the world to standing ovations. To anyone new to the genre, the plot may seem familiar; it famously the musical Rent and its themes are woven through Baz Luhrmann’s Moulin Rouge.
