Madame Butterfly by Puccini, Van (2022/2022), Geregisseerd door Manu Lalli, Dirigent Alberto Veronesi, Teatro all'Aperto, Torre del Lago Puccini, Italië

Giacomo Puccini documented himself for three years and meticulously studied the uses and customs of Japan to shape Cio Cio San, his heroine who, 117 years after the first performance (Milan, Teatro alla Scala 17 February 1904), retains all its irresistible charm. The 2022 season will see the green staging directed by Manu Lalli . An ecological message launched by Manu Lalli visually rendered with a beautiful forest of real trees on stage. Green trees in the first act that become dry and arid in the second and third, a clear message of denunciation against gender violence and the violence that man perpetuates every day to the detriment of nature. On the podium at the head of the Orchestra and Choir of the Puccini Festival Alberto Veronesi , an established interpreter of the “Puccini” style.
