    La Bohème is a work we have longed to present to our audience again. This masterful piece of music drama is a milestone in music history and remains relevant in all times. For the audience, to mirror themselves in the characters - who live in a vulnerable social class - and their profound striving and longing for love, through Puccini’s music and the librettists Illica and Giacosa, is to experience opera art at its very best.
    Alexander Niclasson, Artistic Director
    We are incredibly proud to welcome these first-class opera singers to Skäret this summer. We are also grateful that so many opera singers from around the world audition for us every year. It allows Opera på Skäret to create opera art at a very high level
