1996 Pulitzer Prize for Drama
1996 Tony - Best Musical
Jonathan Larson's Pulitzer-prize winning Broadway musical based loosely on Puccini's opera La Bohème.
It follows a year in the lives of seven friends living the disappearing Bohemian lifestyle in New York's East Village. AIDS and both its physical and emotional complications pervade the lives of Roger, Mimi, Tom, and Angel; Maureen deals with her chronic infidelity through performance art; her partner, Joanne, wonders if their relationship is worth the trouble; Benjamin has sold out his Bohemian ideals in exchange for a hefty income and is on the outs with his former friends; and Mark, an aspiring filmmaker, feels like an outsider to life in general, always behind the camera recording the events but never playing a part.

"It is a powerful love letter to Generation X that does not sugar coat the hardships. " - NY Times
"Despite all this tragedy, there is great jubilation and delicious rebellion. ." - BackStage.
