´ La BohemeA Vivid Original Design Production! Artistic Director Steffanie Pearce Music Director Greg Ritchey Stage Director Josh Shaw Assistant Conductor & Chorus Master Brian Holman Set Designer Ardean Landhuis Lighting & Projections Designer January 24, 2021 | 6:30pm Tlaloc Lopez-Waterman Barbara B. Mann Performing Arts Center Wardrobe Supervisor Caitlin Durrance The Blagojevic Sponsored -Sazonov Group In Part By: at A Message From The ARTISTIC DIRECTOR For our highly anticipated Barbara B. Mann debut, we present a fresh new look at this most popular Puccini opera. The idea came when I was searching for a poster image. Mindful that Puccini composed the work at the height of the Impressionist movement, I started looking at Paris street scenes of that period and came across Van Gogh’s Terrace Cafe at Night. The painting sparked a vision of the characters in the opera living upstairs from that cafe and coming down to hang out there, just like Van Gogh and the Paris Impressionists would have. A vibrant young creative team from across the United States have been collaborating since October to bring this original design production of Puccini’s most loved grand opera to Southwest Florida. Stage director, Josh Shaw, describing this new production explains, “La Bohème is a timeless story with themes as relevant today, as they were in the original setting. In the late 1880s Paris was filled with a concentration of larger than life artistic characters -- Van Gogh, Gauguin, Toulouse-Lautrec, and others. In our production, we are imagining our bohemian lovers as moving in the same circles as the great Impressionist artists who rebelled against classical subject matter and embraced modernity, creating works that reflected the world in which they lived. -
