La Boheme – Puccini – Royal Opera House

The intimacy of Richard Jones’s production of La Boheme is well conceived.  However, the rooftop apartment shared by the writers and artists is rather lacking in 19th century Marseilles style.  It has clean lines and beautiful fresh pinewood sets.  There is no hint of atmospheric old town accommodation and even the ladder through the sky roof, constantly open to the elements, does not really make sense, nor does the smoke from the chimney when there is no working fireplace.
