Virtual ‘Donate What You Can’ Event – Sunday, January 24th – 3:00 p.m.

Celebrate love, and its ability to overcome any obstacle as Young Auditorium and the
Florentine Opera present a child-friendly version of one of the finest operas ever written…LA BOHEME. Join
us on Sunday, January 24th at 3:00 p.m. for this ‘Donate What You Can’ virtual performance.
In this 35-minute version of the Puccini masterpiece, follow the lives of four starving artists in search of love
and inspiration. Sung in Italian and narrated in English, children will easily be able to follow along during this
multi-language work designed specifically with little ones in mind. Recommended for ages 5-10, but
appropriate for everyone! In an interesting local twist, the story’s original location of Paris is swapped for
Milwaukee’s Bronzeville neighborhood!

Based in Milwaukee, The Florentine Opera Company is Wisconsin’s oldest fully professional performing arts
organization and the sixth-oldest opera company in the United States. The Florentine Opera Company is
driven to produce the full range of operatic works reflecting the highest musical and theatrical standards, and to
support community and education programs that foster the current and next generation of opera audiences
and practitioners.
