Opera Omaha will be presenting its latest production, Puccini's
La Bohème, at the Orpheum Theater downtown on April 15th, 17th and 19th, and I will be in the chorus. One of the most popular operas of all time, it tells the story of young bohemians in Paris falling in love and struggling to survive. The plot was the basis for the hit Broadway musical
Rent, and it is a great introduction to opera for people who might be unfamiliar with it. It will be performed in Italian with English "supertitles" (translations) projected above the stage. The Wednesday and Friday performances are at 7:30 PM, and the Sunday matinee is at 2 PM.
