La Bohème is a gem of late 19th century lyrical psychological opera. It follows the traditions of Verdi's La Traviata and is dedicated, according to music historian Mikhail Muginstein, to the "sad mystery of life investigated from the perspective of time’s irreversibility." Philipp Himmelmann, a stage director from Germany, is known to Russian audiences as the director of Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro staged in Perm in 2012. His interpretation of the opera by Puccini is set in Paris in the 1960s. It was a legendary time that gave birth to the new cinematography, fashion and understanding of the role of personality in history. Teodor Currentzis: "La Bohème is a story about fragile people creating fragile beauty. This is a story about angels trying to create their own life on earth".

Opera production. USA 2010, 177 min. Music by Georges Bizet, production by Richard Eyre. Conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin. Libretto by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy. Starring: Roberto Alagna, Teddy Tahu Rhodes, Elīna Garanča. In French with Russian subtitles. Richard Eyre’s stunning new production of Bizet’s opera was the talk of the town when it was unveiled on New Year’s Eve 2009. Elīna Garanča leads the cast as the iconic gypsy of the title—a woman desired by every man but determined to remain true to herself. Roberto Alagna is Don José, the soldier who falls under her spell and sacrifices everything for her love, only to be cast aside when the toreador Escamillo (Teddy Tahu Rhodes) piques Carmen’s interest. With dances created by star choreographer Christopher Wheeldon and conducted by rising maestro Yannick Nézet-Séguin, this Carmen brings every aspect of Bizet’s tale to thrilling life, from its lighthearted beginning to its inevitably tragic climax.
