Royal Opera House: La Bohème

When Rodolfo, a penniless poet, meets Mimì, a seamstress, they fall instantly in love.

Rodolfo introduces Mimì to his bohemian friends Marcello, Colline and Schaunard, and the group heads to Café Momus, where Marcello reunites with his ex-girlfriend Musetta.

But the happiness of the friends – and of budding romance – is threatened when Rodolfo learns that Mimì is gravely ill.

Can the warmth of friendship – and of young love – sustain the group of bohemians through the hardships of a cold winter?
