The main characters of La Bohème are typical, mid-nineteenth-century Parisians: the poet Rodolfo, the painter Marcello, and others. One day, the seamstress Mimi enters their poverty-stricken, youthfully exuberant world. But Mimi's fate has already been sealed... As her disease progresses, the support of her friends and the love of Rodolfo bring new meaning to her life. Its touching story and wonderful melodies have made La Bohème one of the most popular operas in history. The successful production returns to the LNO stage after a few years break.
