Paris, 1900. Penniless writer Rodolfo
believes that art is all he needs – until he meets Mimì, the lonely seamstress
who lives upstairs. So begins a timeless love story that blooms, fades, and
rekindles with the passing seasons. But while the couple’s friends Marcello and
Musetta passionately row and make up, a force greater than love threatens
Rodolfo and Mimì.
Richard Jones’s production evokes the vivid contrasts of fin de siècle Paris, from Bohemian apartments to glittering arcades.
Tickets R100. Picnic baskets may be brought to the venue, or food can be purchased onsite – burgers, wors rolls, chicken pops and chips, cheesy Russians, snack baskets etc. A full bar is available (no alcohol may be brought on to the premises).
