Puccini's La Boheme
Presented by Martin Handley

For Rodolfo, living in poverty with a group of bohemian friends, life changes when there's a knock at the door, and Mimì, a fragile seamstress who lives in another room in the building, asks for help with her candle. But, as he discovers, love does not bring happiness. Puccini's La Boheme, an opera which seems to have a special place in the hearts of performers and audience alike, returns to Covent Garden.
