'A hidden national treasure with brilliant productions' according to Opera Now, Garden Opera Company is in its 19th season and last year's production at Southbank Centre was sold out weeks ahead.

This fully staged version is sung in English in Amanda Holden's translation. The star studded cast is accompanied by an acclaimed ensemble of 'formidable' chamber musicians led by Peter Bridges and produced by award-winning Director Martin Lloyd Evans and designer Neil Irish.

Romance, joie de vivre and heartbreak make La Bohème one of the world's most popular and captivating operas. Set to some of Puccini's most ravishingly beautiful music, its emotionally charged story of two star-crossed lovers is interlaced with humour and drama. This sensitive masterpiece never fails to enthrall.

'So high the overall standard of musicianship - the six piece band is formidable.' The Guardian
