Puccini’s La Bohème
Ellen Kent: Puccini’s La Bohème, Warwick Arts Centre, Coventry. April 30.
Preview
Award-winning producer Ellen Kent returns to Warwick Arts Centre this Spring 2025 with the Ukrainian Opera & Ballet Theatre Kyiv presenting a stunning traditional production of Puccini’s La Bohème.
Directed by Ellen Kent, La Bohème is traditionally staged and features beautiful sets and costumes. One of the most romantic operas ever written, La Bohème tells the tragic tale of the doomed, consumptive Mimi and her love for a penniless writer. The set reflects the Bohemian art of the period and includes snow effects. Plus, Muzetta’s dog will also make an entrance.
This classic tale of Parisian love and loss features many famous arias including Your Tiny Hand is Frozen, They Call Me Mimi and Muzetta’s Waltz. Sung in Italian with English surtitles.
As with Ellen’s past UK and Ireland opera tours, Ellen personally hand-picks and directs all soloists to create visually beautiful and moving productions. Ellen Kent said: ‘I am delighted to be working with the Ukrainian Opera & Ballet Theatre Kyiv again after the huge success of the 2023 and 2024 tours.
“I started working with Ukraine in 2000 and have continued these strong relationships ever since, working with the Odessa National Opera for which I was awarded The Golden Fortune Honorary Medal from the President of the Ukraine, as well as the Kharkiv National Opera and for the last couple of years with the brilliant Opera and Ballet Theatre Kyiv.”
