Bohème

Christmas Eve, 1830s Paris. A poet answers his door to find a seamstress asking for a light. In the darkness, searching for a lost key, they fall in love. Rodolfo and his three companions have nothing but their art and each other. Mimi has her needle and her fragile health. What follows is the original bohemian tragedy that Puccini transformed into his most beloved opera, and that Jonathan Larson reimagined as Rent. Four young artists burning bright against the cold, living on wine and dreams and each other, until illness and poverty close in. It endures because it captures something true about youth, art, and the way love arrives uninvited and won't let go.
