It is accompanied by an Italian libretto, which is written by Giuseppe Giacosa and Luigi Illica. The opera was crafted in 4 acts by Giacomo Puccini between the period of 1893 to 1895. When a seamstress knocks on his door searching for candlelight, the pair fall in love faster than she can sing “Yes, they call me Mimì.” Between the ideals of love and art and the cruel realities of cold winters, bitter jealousies and empty pockets, two sets of lovers are trying to find their way. The Story Behind the Opera 'La bohme' by Puccini La bohme portrays a 19th-century love story of a poor French couple, a poet, and a seamstress. As Act One begins, two struggling young artists, the poet Rodolfo and a painter, Marcello, are working in their shabby, unheated.

Using a synopsis of Mozarts The Magic Flute, ask students to name a thing, a location and time. The opera's familiar story is set in the Latin Quarter of Paris. It’s Christmas Eve, and the poet has just felt the first pangs of great love. At this point, do not tell the students what the opera is. A poet, a painter, a musician and a philosopher walk into a bar to celebrate a sudden windfall in a lean winter.
