Since Puccini premiered La Bohème in 1896, audiences have enjoyed an insatiable love affair with one of the most romantic of all operas. Giancarlo del Monaco’s one million euro cinematic production of this masterpiece, from the legendary Teatro Real, takes its place among the great interpretations of modern times, a lavish visual and musical treat not to be missed. Inva Mula captivates as the star-crossed Mimi who strives to follow her heart in a bohemian world of painters, philosophers, musicians, jugglers, tightrope walkers and even a commedia dell'arte troupe. Jesús Lopez Cobos directs an outstanding cast, led by Mula and Aquiles Machado as Mimi and Rodolfo, in a landmark production full of romance and filmic style.
