Madame Butterfly by Puccini, Dom 03 Iúil 2022, Ó (2021/2022), Faoi stiúir Maria-magdalena Kwaschik,, Seoltóir Alexander Soddy, Jānis Liepiņš, Nationaltheater, Mannheim, Germany

Cio-Cio-San, called Butterfly, longs for a new beginning. In the marriage with FB Pinkerton, this vision seems to become reality, but soon shadows descend over the burgeoning happiness and Butterfly is left behind. Victims versus perpetrators, naive illusions versus brutal reality - the roles seem to be clearly divided. And yet video artist Roland Horvath succeeds in extracting surprising facets from the story that pose the question of identity and self-determination in a completely new way. The result is a series of images that let Puccini's masterpiece shine in a new light.
