Talking about Opera – La bohème
This event is in Italian.
The art of storytelling is made up of intertwined threads that open up the enchantment of listening.
Beatrice Monroy tell us the story of the opera La bohème with Gigi Borruso and Sabrina Petix.
The wonderful story of Mimì, Musetta and the four boys in the Parisian attic comes to Puccini from Henry Muger’s play, Scènes de la vie de Bohème.
A story of young people, hopes and loves that don’t know how to move forward.
Stories that break the melodrama of heroes – they are just ordinary people without a penny. That’s life.
We have chosen to open and close with two poems by Baudelaire; when you hear them, you will find they are just right for the occasion.
Tickets (3 euros) are available at the box-office and online.
You can access the Sala Onu through the stairs located in the stage door area (on the right side of the main entrance, close to Via Pignatelli Aragona).
An accessible pathway, with no steps and the elevator, is also available (ask the staff for guidance).
About
The Project
Beatrice Monroy – with readings by Stefania Blandeburgo, Gigi Borruso, Rinaldo Clementi, Giuseppe Cutino, Consuelo Lupo, and Sabrina Petyx – recounts the plots of the Operas staged at the Teatro Massimo to the audience, as well as the historical and cultural references on which the librettists based their work.
Our aim is to bring to the audience the extraordinary stories that inspired the Masters to compose their masterpieces.

The plot
A painful, unforgettable story of Liliana Segre being deported to the Auschwitz concentration camp when she was only 13 years old. A story of which the world must become the bearer in order to pass on what has been and must never happen again. A story that stems from the personal need to help young consciences become familiar with painful facts that are part of our past through the most suitable tools.
Spoken parts of the performance are in Italian; a basic understanding of the language is adviced.
This is an event for school groups. In case seats are available to the general audience, they will be on sale on the same day of performance at the box-office.

Programme
The plot
Aida is not only a monumental opera set in an idealized Egypt, but a universal story that speaks of deep human emotions. The protagonists—Aida, Radamès, and Amneris—are young people overwhelmed by passions and ambitions greater than themselves, victims of an inexorable fate and a cruel and useless war. The opera thus becomes a reflection on love as the only way to give meaning to life.
