Portland Opera Presents: La Bohème
Composed by Giacomo Puccini
Libretto by Luigi Illica & Giuseppe Giacosa
"This unforgettable story of passionate young artists remains one of the world's most beloved operas, reminding us of the beauty and meaning in life’s fleeting moments of joy.
Based on Henry Murger’s 1851 novel Scènes de la vie de bohème, Puccini’s soaring arias tell the tender tale of Mimi and Rodolfo as they face the perils of poverty. A story that transcends time and place, its message of love through adversity resonates deeply with our community’s spirit. In its characters we see ourselves—the artists, the dreamers, and the everyday people, who face challenges but never lose sight of love and connection."
With the Portland Opera Orchestra, Chorus, and Children's Chorus
