"Sitting at the opera at the age of 14, Elaine Alvarez knew she had found her calling: She would play Mimi in \u201CLa Boheme.\u201D\n\u201CThe ability that it had to capture what we go through in our lives was something I had never experienced before,\u201D Alvarez says of Giacomo Puccini\u2019s classic opera. \u201CIt moved me to such a degree that [I decided] that was what I wanted to do with my voice.\u201D\nThis weekend, Alvarez and the rest of Virginia Opera\u2019s production of \u201CLa Boheme\u201D will come to Richmond CenterStage, relating the story of four bohemian friends as they eke out a living in Paris."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
