Experience the poignant beauty and emotional depth of Puccini's timeless masterpiece, Madama Butterfly, at the Rialto Theater.
This operatic jewel tells the story of Cio-Cio-San, a young and naive Japanese geisha, known as Butterfly, who falls deeply in love with Pinkerton, a dashing but insincere U.S. Navy officer. Swept away by his promises, Butterfly dreams of a loving future and a new life in America, marrying Pinkerton and embracing his culture, only to be abandoned as he returns to the United States. The opera captures Butterfly's unwavering faith and devotion as she clings to the hope of Pinkerton's return, only to face a devastating truth that challenges her dreams and honor.
The stunning production, set against the historic ambiance of the Rialto Theater, will immerse audiences in the transformative power of love and sacrifice.
