Madama Butterfly

Madama Butterfly


When young Japanese geisha Cio-Cio-San marries American naval officer Pinkerton, she believes she is entering a marriage for life. Forsaking her religion and community, she dreams of a future with her new husband, only to learn that for Pinkerton, their marriage is merely an illusion — one with tragic consequences.

With its exquisite score, Giacomo Puccini’s poignant 1904 opera is as beautiful as it is shattering. Drawing inspiration from 19th-century European images of Japan, Moshe Leiser and Patrice Caurier’s production stars Asmik Grigorian with Kevin John Edusei conducting.

Asmik Grigorian (Cio-Cio-San); Joshua Guerrero (Lieutenant B. F. Pinkerton); Lauri Vasar (Sharpless); Hongni Wu (Suzuki); Ya-Chung Huang (Goro); Jeremy White (The Bonze); Josef Jeongmeen Ahn (Prince Yamadori); Veena Akama-Makia (Kate Pinkerton); Romanas Kudriašovas (Imperial Commissioner); Orchestra & Chorus of the Royal Opera House; Kevin John Edusei.
