Resumption of the show staged in September 2017 and then again between December 2019 and January 2020, applauded by both critics and the public, one of the most beloved works of the Italian repertoire returns to the stage of the Maggio: La bohème, the masterpiece by Giacomo Puccini, with the libretto by Giuseppe Giacosa and Luigi Illica, inspired by the novel by Henri Murger Scènes de la vie de bohème.
Staged with the direction of Bruno Ravella, reprized on this occasion by Stefania Grazioli, the staging sees Rodolfo, Mimì, Marcello, Musetta and the other protagonists in Paris at the end of the 19th century: the cross-section of the attic of Rodolfo and Marcello, where sets the first part of the opera, it is simple and essential in its spaces, while in the second part the scene is dominated by a large semicircle full of lights, with the skeleton of the attic from the first part which becomes the structure of the famous "Café Momus". The third part is also minimalist in its structure: the setting of the scene set in La Barriera d'Enfer is formed by a small wooden construction, a bar and a bench. The scenes, curated by Tiziano Santi, are well cared for but not overly realistic, so as not to show a simple photographic portrait of the era in which the production is set, therefore aimed more at 'suggesting' the spaces rather than showing them as precisely in a photograph.
