Singer

A Hungarian countess, a Russian prince, a magically attractive watch, and a bat costume make for a strange recipe of plot in any setting, except perhaps in a time not that long ago when anything was possible... the Golden Age of Hollywood! A time when an actress has access to a Hungarian Princess costume, a maid is an aspiring chorus girl, a mysterious Russian playboy comes to town to throw around some money, and a matinee idol with panache for the ladies is in a little hot water with the local police.

Eugene Opera is thrilled to bring you Puccini's beloved masterwork, performed at the Silva Concert Hall with the Eugene Opera Orchestra and Chorus.

This quintessential work of Italian opera tells the story of Mimì, a seamstress, and her love for the poet Rodolfo. In the garrets of Paris, their love blossoms among the shadow of her worsening illness and impending death. With soaring melodies and heartbreaking emotion, this opera breathes hope into tragedy with every phrase.
