Madame Butterfly is the moving story of the young Japanese Cio-Cio-San who waits years for the return of her great love, American Lieutenant Benjamin Franklin Pinkerton.
Until it turns out that the unconditional love was one-sided and her world collapses.
Frank Van Laecke summarizes his directing concept as follows: “Cio-cio-San shares her story with many. In her name women (who are like ghosts on the stage) await the return of he who will never stay. In her total surrender, in her unyielding logic, waiting is only a necessary phase in her life story. One that doesn't end unknown. After all, there are only two exits: reunion or death.
And in both cases grief and pain die.”
The exit that Frank Van Laecke came up with in the final is astonishing and leaves no one untouched. The development from a naive geisha to a young woman consumed by grief is fantastically directed. The decor by Paul Gallis is an impressive example of Japanese sobriety and Yan Tax's eye-catching costumes and the lighting help to create the right atmosphere in every scene.
Italian libretto, surtitles in Dutch.
