She gives hints about her illness at the start, collapsing onto a chair and leaning over a barrel after a coughing fit.

It is a wonderful way to open the 2022/23 season. Directed by Joshua Horowitz and conducted by Artistic and Music Director Craig Kier, it blends beautiful music with rich, emotionally stirring singing and lovely movements. Annapolis Opera’s production of La bohème is a visual as well as musical treat.
