The Truman State University Kohlenberg Lyceum Series will sponsor a performance of the opera classic “La Bohème” at 7 p.m. Dec. 6 in Baldwin Hall Auditorium in .

Originally composed by Giacomo Puccini in the late 1800s, this innovative reimagining, performed by Ozarks Lyric Opera, is set in the modern day and focuses on young artists hustling to make ends meet. At the forefront, Rodolfo, a poet and writer, falls for Mimì, a seamstress and aspiring designer facing grave illness. Puccini’s lush score captures the fleeting joy, heartbreak and defiant spirit of youth in a production that pulses with contemporary energy and emotional depth.

Established in Springfield, Missouri, in 1979, Ozarks Lyric Opera is committed to the transformative power of opera and providing live performances in the Ozarks. In keeping with the spirit of accessibility and bringing opera to a wider audience, this production of “La Bohème” is performed in Italian with English supertitles projected on stage.

This production of “La Bohème” will make use of the orchestra pit in the Baldwin Hall Auditorium. Portions of the stage will be removed, and musicians will perform from the pit. This is the first time the orchestra pit has been utilized since 2015.

Tickets for “La Bohème” are provided free of charge and will be available starting Nov. 17 and can be picked up at the Ruth W. Towne Museum and Visitors Center, located at the corner of Franklin Street and Normal Avenue, or at the Kirksville Arts Association in downtown Kirksville. Any remaining tickets will be available the day of the event beginning 30 minutes before the performance.
