Bath Opera

Bath Opera's touring company is visiting the Blakehay Theatre with a new production of Puccini's best loved opera, La Boheme.

Packed with wonderful arias ('Your Tiny Hand is Frozen', 'They call me Mimi') and intense emotion, it takes the audience on a roller-coaster ride of love and tragedy.

On Christmas Eve around 1830, Rodolfo stays in his Paris attic to finish a poem while his three artist friends go to a bar. Mimi a neighbour knocks at his door, asking him to light her candle, and one of opera's most famous love affairs is born. But Mimi is sick and tragedy follows.

Musical direction by Peter Blackwood, stage direction by Tom Magnon.
