    Hi! Come click around. It'll be awesome. This is a page for me, Jonathan Ichikawa, and theatery stuff. The 'about' page is here, if you're one of those people who needs things like that.

    La Boheme at Yale
    February 19th, 2007 audience

    My friend Lauren is a musicology student at Yale; she invited me to see the Yale Opera production of Puccini’s La Boheme. I enjoyed it quite a lot.

    I was surprised when I looked at the cast list and saw Sara Jakubiak’s name for Mimi. I knew Sara back in Midland; we were in a production of H.M.S. Pinafore together in 2000. (Once I have that particular bit of archive up I’ll link to it here!) She was excellent back then; I’m pleased to see that her singing career is taking off. Sadly, I didn’t see her in this production, which was dual-cast; I saw the other Mimi.

    Caroline, my friend from college, was playing the violin in the pit.
    Here are pictures from the program. I particularly like the program cover.

    EDIT: My scanner is being tempermental; here is just the cover and my ticket stub; I’ll include a few more pages, including the cast list, later.
