Title: Good production, good performances
Review: La Boheme happens to be one of my favorite operas along with La Traviata, Marriage of Figaro, and Pagliacci. I like Baz Luhrman's production of Puccini's work. It presents the original themes of the opera in a manner which bridges the gap between traditional theatre and today. The presentation is also easier for the younger audiences to understand, set in Paris in the 20th century.The performances were satisfactory. Not the most spectacular ever heard, but still very very well done. Favorite scenes of mine include Musetta's aria in Act 2 and the opening of Act 4 (duet: Rodolfo, Marcello). I highly recomend this as an introduction to opera for those less knowledgeable. I highly enjoyed it.Now, Moulin Rouge is a completely different story - more like a continuance of the same theme but with lame music. Listening to a regurgitated 80's love song medley is not my idea of a good musical. La Boheme is great. Moulin Rouge - not so much.
