A Tale of Love and Tragedy

A classic reborn in 21st-century East London. A tale of love and tragedy, beauty and decay, charting the ups and downs of a group of idealistic graduates, Puccini’s La Bohème (Certificate: 12A) is one of the world's best-loved operas.

La Bohème is an opera in four acts, composed by Giacomo Puccini between 1893 and 1895 to an Italian libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa, based on Scènes de la vie de bohème by Henri Murger. The story is set in Paris around 1830 and shows the Bohemian lifestyle of a poor seamstress and her artist friends.

These themes of love, art, and personal freedom are not confined to the opera stage but resonate with all of us, making La Bohème a truly universal work of art.

La Bohème (U) can be seen on the Torch Theatre screen on Saturday 21 March at 6.15pm. Price: £7.50 | £7.00 Cons | £6.00 Child | £24.00 Family. Book tickets via the website torchtheatre.co.uk / Box Office: 01646 695267 or click here.
