'La Bohème' also plays at Christmas time. Johannes Leiacker's blue-framed stage design is wintry. It's snowing and snowing. The freezing artists live on a cinemascope-sized pedestal close to heaven. A counter in the Latin Quarter, a giant saluting upside down -Nicholas, shine of lights, a chapel with Mickey Mouse masks, the night city in the distance: it's nice to look at.

Peter Bording in der Rolle des Papageno sicherlich eine Glanzbesetzung, mit clowneskem Gespür für seine Rolle als naiver Harlekin und einem trefflich geeigneten Bariton.
