Cast Creative Edit

Composed by Giacomo PUCCINI, this most popular opera portrays the lives of young artists residing in a garret in Paris; it is a beautiful, sad tale that unfolds around four friends - Rodolfo the poet, his seamstress sweetheart Mimi, Marcello the painter and his Musetta.

Directed by AGUNI Jun, one of the features of the production is the stage design, recreating the city of Paris. The psychological depiction of the characters woven throughout each Act is a work of refined accomplishment.

Musical highlights include the arias by Rodolfo and Mimi respectively in the garret scene in Act 1, the aria by Musetta in the glamorous Latin Quarter in Act 2 and the climatic aria duet by Rodolfo and Mimi back in the garret in Act 4. The melodies in each scene, brimming with emotion, takes you to the romantic world of PUCCINI.

Paolo ARRIVABENI, who has served as the musical director of the Opéra Royal de Wallonie in Belgium since 2008, will make his debut appearance at the New National Theatre, Tokyo as conductor of this production. The cast also includes some New National Theatre, Tokyo debut appearances, namely Aurelia FLORIAN as Mimi and Gianluca TERRANOVA as Rodolfo.
