Famed opera 'La bohème' brought to Hanoi
For the first time, artists from the Opera Australia company will perform "La bohème," one of opera’s most popular stories, at the Hanoi Opera House on April 10.
The four-act opera, composed by Italia's Giacomo Puccini between 1893 and 1895, is directed by Australian stage director Matthew Barclay and English conductor Jonathan Webb.
"La bohème" is a story of first love. When Rodolfo, a penniless poet, meets Mimì, a seamstress, they fall passionately in love. But their happiness is threatened when Rodolfo learns that Mimì is gravely ill.
