With one of Puccini’s greatest masterpieces, Clonter presents the history of a love affair, from the first tentative encounter to its devastating end. As a young poet and dress-maker fall for each other, romantic idealism is confronted by the reality of poverty, and the lives of a small group of friends are transformed forever.
Production set in the mid-20th Century and sung in Italian with English surtitles, and orchestra.
