Madama Butterfly

OPERA BY GIACOMO PUCCINI Puccini once said that it was the most sincere and expressive work he had ever written. Nagasaki, beginning of the 20th century: Cio-Cio San chooses to renounce her country's traditions and her family's beliefs to give her whole heart to the love of her life, an American general. She never imagined for one moment that the passion that consumes her would plunge her into the depths of loneliness and hopeless despair. For this stunning production by the Opéra de Montréal, two women also play the key roles of orchestral conductor and stage director.
