“Goodbye, dreams of love”

The world’s most beloved opera graces the Opera Omaha stage. For centuries Puccini’s shivering artists have moved hearts with their bohemian ideals and singular hope. In a winter of poverty, Mimi and Rodolfo’s love ignites a contagious warmth until a heartbreaking reality tears them apart.

E. Loren Meeker’s sumptuous production of this operatic staple heightens the romance and the sting of Parisian cold. Stars, Karen Chia-ling Ho and Demetrious Sampson are the ill-fated lovers alongside their fellow starving artists Susanne Burgess, Darren Drone, Johnathan McCullough, and Nicholas Newton, all making their Opera Omaha debuts.
