Nostalgia may no longer be what it used to be… but award winning director Daisy Evans puts it to powerful effect in our exciting new production of Puccini’s much loved masterpiece. It is 30 years since Rodolfo and his friends endured their heartbreaking encounter with Mimi. Seen through the lens of time past, the joy and tragedy of these events have a fierce new clarity and force…
A new production for HGO by Daisy Evans with New London Children’s Choir and the HGO Orchestra

REVIEWS
Was I carried away by the romance? Yes. By the nostalgia of lost youth? Yes. Did I share in the matey good cheer of the young lads? Yes. Did I enjoy seeing La bohème sung by singers of the right sort of age for the characters? For sure. And was I in floods at the end? Absolutely. Job done.
