Musetta may have Alcindoro, but La Bohème has Broadway producers. Gathered with the Bohemians are the men and women who will make their debut on the Great White Way possible, including set designer and costume co-designer Catherine Martin (kneeling, second from left) and director Baz Luhrmann (laughing, second from right).

Oscar nominee Lurhmann's staging of the classic Puccini opera about doomed lovers loving and losing among the poor poets, artists and writers of Bohemian Paris begins previews at the Broadway Theatre Nov. 29. Lurhman's interpretation sets the 1896 Italian opera in 1957-58 and will be sung in the original with slangy English surtitles. The opera is triple-cast with color-coded rotating members — the "Red" (Ekaterina Solovyeva as Mimi and David Miller as Rodolfo), the "White" (Wei Huang as Mimi and Alfred Boe as Rodolfo) and the "Blue" (Lisa Hopkins as Mimi and Jesus Garcia as Rodolfo).
