Puccini's masterpiece bursts forth in a stunning all-new production.
Immerse yourself in Puccini’s timeless classic Madama Butterfly — a story of hope, longing, and ultimate sacrifice.
Featuring some of the most exquisite arias and beautiful duets ever composed, this critically acclaimed new co-production is grounded during the Allied occupation of postwar Japan between 1946 and 1953.
Arizona Opera’s production — with Puccini’s ravishing score, an extraordinary cast and orchestra, new sets and costumes, and a design team of all first-generation Asian women — explores the passion for finding a better life, the heartfelt desire to be seen and accepted, and the cost of believing in promises that are built on fundamentally unequal ground.
It is a musical journey of unmatched beauty and emotional depth, certain to captivate audiences anew as it sheds fresh light on Puccini’s masterpiece and the world around us.
