Brace yourself for another mind trip from the 40-something visionary Yuval Sharon, genial take-no-prisoners artistic director of the Detroit Opera. Fresh off his 70-minute drive-thru digest of Wagner’s “Ring” (Twilight: Gods), Sharon now whisks us to the garrets of Paris, running the four acts of Puccini’s beloved La Bohème in counterchronological order. You ask why? “From finish to start, from death to the promise of new love, from loneliness and despair to the joy of friendships, wine, and song, this reversal presents the characters and arias we love in a refreshing, new vision of the story. Our favorite starving young artists and lovers survive to hope another day.” Paging Marty McFly! —Matthew Gurewitsch
