In the frozen garrets of Paris, we meet the dreamers: the poets, painters, philosophers, and musicians who sacrifice everything for their craft and for each other. It is a timeless story of youthful passion and the fragile beauty of a love that flickers brightly before the cold reality of the world intrudes.
Chicago is a vital cultural epicenter for developing artists, and the Opera Festival of Chicago is proud to help young talent refine their craft and step confidently onto the professional stage
