La bohème at the Opera House

Puccini's garret opera, in the Kálmán Nádasdy production the Opera has kept in its repertoire since 1937. The singing is in Italian and the surtitles run in English.

About the event

The staging has given nearly a thousand performances, and Gusztáv Oláh's sets and Tivadar Márk's costumes are still in use. Rodolfo and Marcello are freezing in a Paris attic when Mimì knocks, her candle blown out, and the four acts carry the pair from that first meeting through jealousy and separation to her death in the same room. Surtitles run in Hungarian, English and Italian. It lasts about three hours with two intervals, and the Opera does not recommend it for children under twelve. Tickets are sold on the Opera's own website.
