La Boheme is based on the masterwork by Giacomo Puccini itself based on a novel by Henri Murger. This latest production and direction by Jonathan Millar for the English National Opera was filmed at the London Coliseum in early 2009 and features a brand new English translation by Amanda Holden. Taken to Paris’s depression era of the 1930’s by Miller and designer Isabella Bywater a vision of realism as depicted in the films and photos of the peroid is captured.
