La Boheme

If you missed Jonathan Miller’s wonderful production of Puccini’s La bohème, now’s your chance to catch it once more at the ENO. Intensely beautiful music, a delightful plot, a sophisticated 1930s setting plus love, heartbreak and exceptional voices await you. While it was written 130 years ago, this plot never grows old: when the young Parisian couple, Mimì and Rodolfo, fall in love they think their passion makes them invincible. But she falls ill and poverty comes knocking at their door, forcing him to make a terrible decision.

Clelia Cafiero conducts with Crispin Lord as Revival Director. Amanda Holden is the Translator and the cast includes Nadine Benjamin as Mimi, Joshua Blue as Rodolfo, Charles Rice as Marcello and Vuvu Mpofu as Musetta. Patrick Alexander Keefe sings Schaunard and Dingle Yandell is Colline. Joshua Blue is a highly respected young opera star, has wowed audiences as Tamino at the Metropolitan Opera, and with the American Symphony Orchestra and Leon Botstein for Dvořák's Requiem at Carnegie Hall. Nadine Benjamin MBE is a previous ENO Harewood Artist who sang at ENO’s Olivier Award-nominated Blue and many more. Pure magic.
