La Boheme, under a beautiful night sky in redwood grove? Yes, please! We are beyond thrilled to be one of the Community Revel nights at Santa Cruz Shakespeare. Get you tickets now and don’t miss it!

We are incredibly pleased to have the Santa Cruz Opera Project take the SCS stage. As part of the Community Revels entertainment series, the Santa Cruz Opera Project will press La Boheme under the beautiful redwoods and eucalyptus trees of the Audrey Stanley Grove at DeLaveaga Park. September 29. www.santacruzshakespeare.org/community-revels

We are thrilled to be performing our La Boheme as part of the Community Revels! If you can’t make it to one of our June performances at Woodhouse Brewery (or even if you can!) mark your calendars for September 29th at the Grove!

We had a fantastic turnout at auditions and have cast most roles — thank you to everyone who came out!

We are still seeking submissions for:

Rodolfo – traditionally tenor, but for this production we are especially interested in a female or nonbinary soprano/mezzo-soprano (tenors still welcome to inquire).

Alcindoro – baritone, strong character/comedic presence.

This is for our English-language adaptation, performing June 10–14 with a September remount.

Interested? Send us a message or find details at:

Please share with singers who might be a great fit!
