The long waited (for some) Spring general booking at Royal Opera House is tomorrow, February 7, starting 10am (UK time = GMT). For those who want to attend those two (or at least one) La Boheme on June 19 and June 23, this is your moment.
Cast: Mimì - Angela Gheorghiu Rodolfo - Roberto Alagna Musetta - Nuccia Focile Marcello - George Petean Colline - Yuri Vorobiev Schaunard - Thomas Oliemans Benoît - Jeremy White Alcindoro - Donald Maxwell
Conductor - Maurizio Benini
Director - John Copley
The other operas included in the Spring booking are: Miss Fortune, Rigoletto, La Fille du régiment and Falstaff. Or if you like ballet: Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, New Scarlett/Polyphonia/New McGregor and La Fille mal gardée.
When buying the ticket for La Boheme consider that Les Troyens premiers on June 25. This too should be a not to be missed performance if you check out the cast. But Les Troyens is part of Summer booking (April 10)
Dear all, happy queuing. It's a silent, nerve racking fight. But it's soooo part of attending a performance at ROH. Let me know what you got!
