“Overall, LA Opera’s 2025 La Bohème presented a celebration of tradition, artistry, and emotional storytelling”
— Arts Beat LA
“Director Brenna Corner emphasizes immediacy in her staging. She crafts each scene with such emotional clarity, allowing reactions to develop naturally rather than look like pre-set, decorative gestures. The result is a production that moves with the messy, genuine rhythms of human connection.”
