Join Amelia Island Opera for Puccini's timeless masterpiece, La bohème, presented in concert. This opera tells the poignant story of four struggling bohemians – a poet, a painter, a musician, and a philosopher – who share their lives in Paris. Everything changes on a chilling Christmas Eve when a young woman named Mimì seeks a simple favor, igniting a passionate love between her and Rodolfo.

 

Yet, as the flames of love flicker brightly, the shadows of hardship loom. Mimì's ailing health and Rodolfo's financial struggles cast a dark cloud over their romance. La bohème weaves a narrative that transcends time, accompanied by enchanting and unforgettable music. Don't miss this opportunity to experience the enduring beauty of Puccini's masterpiece.
