One chance meeting can change people’s lives forever.  When Rodolfo hears a knock at his door on Christmas Eve, opera’s greatest love story is launched!  Puccini’s soaring, aching melodies perfectly capture the emotion of every moment, from the exhilaration of young love at first sight to the story’s unforgettable and heartbreaking conclusion.  The unbridled passion of this ageless tale has made it a favorite of audiences for over a century. Sung in Italian with projected English translations. Approximate running time: 2 hours, 20 minutes including one intermission. Tickets on sale beginning February 15.
