Review: LA BOHEME at Opera Theatre Of Saint Louis
You'll fall in love with Puccini yet again. Opera Theatre of St. Louis continues their forty-ninth season with a superb production of Puccini’s masterpiece, La Bohème—his most beloved work. The occasional sprinkle of very light rain seemed to refresh rather than deter those dining on the lovely grounds. Again the theatre was packed to the rafters with eager opera lovers. They were not disappointed.
