Tragedy of a Japanese woman in two acts Poetry by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa, based on the tragedy of the same name by David Belasco, based on the Japanese novella by John Luther Long // In Italian with German surtitles

Puccini planted a tragic love story in the glorified and for Europeans disturbing image of Japanese women's culture, which is one of the most famous, but also most depressing and fatal in opera literature: the young geisha Cio-Cio-San blossoms in love with an American, dreams of the culture of freedom of the West, rids itself of its religious roots and hopes for a life that can only be a dream. With virtuoso detailed painting, exotic sounds and musico-dramatic milieu descriptions, Madama Butterfly has asserted itself as THE opera of Puccini for 110 years at the opera houses of the world. The clash of controversial worlds, cultures and lifestyles seems magical and tragic at the same time - and Cio-Cio-Sans sensitive amore miois the trigger for one of the most dramatic stories in music theatre.

After her sensational Tosca debut at the Bielefeld Theater, Soojin Moon will now embody the tragic title character of this opera!
