Madama Butterfly synopsis:

Experience the ravishing romance of Madame Butterfly in a bold new production by Australia’s most famous choreographer, Graeme Murphy.

Enchanted by the beauty of Japan, the American naval officer Pinkerton takes a young geisha for his wife. The innocent Madame Butterfly falls helplessly, hopelessly in love. But every ship must return to its shore, and Pinkerton returns home, leaving his bride behind. Butterfly waits patiently for her husband to return, and when he comes at last, both lovers have a surprise in store.

This long-awaited reimagining uses the same incredible technology that wowed audiences in Aida, where towering flexible LED screens form a dynamic backdrop filled with moving images.

Puccini’s sumptuous score includes the hit aria ‘Un bel di’.

Sung in Italian with English surtitles

    Madame Butterfly Production was astounding, the Principles and rest of cast were wonderful and the staging and costumes were a spectacle. We were fortunate to be able to see this show only after Opera Australia Customer Service sorted out a blunder I had made with the ticketing. They were very kind and generous and allowed us to come down from the country to see the show. We loved it. Thankyou

    Celebrated our 9th Wedding Anniversary with a beautiful night at the Sydney Opera House. Took in a stellar performance of Madama Butterfly. Music was majestic and the soprano was fantastic.

    Personally I didn’t really like the modern take on Madamma Butterfly. I thought the stage and visuals were a bit tacky. Worse still was the quality of the food served before the show. The dinner was extremely disappointing. The wine list was also very limited and fairly ordinary. And why have a New Zealand Chardonnay at an Australian iconic venue? Aren’t there any Australian Chardonnays they could list? On the positive side, the orchestra and singing were great.

    We enjoyed the opera and we appreciated the comfortable access to the event. The orchestra was very good and the overall performance provided us a great night.

    My 2 daughters and I saw Madama Butterfly last night at the Sydney Opera House. It was outstanding! The staff was friendly and helpful. The show including the atmosphere, performers, orchestra and scenery, was worth much more than the price of the ticket! It’s an experience that should not be missed!

    An incredible performance! The staging is unique and special. My 15 year old upcoming opera singer loved it. Both Madame Butterfly and Suzuki were spectacular. I highly recommend it!!

    Digital effects overwhelm the emotional core of Graeme Murphy’s visually striking, design driven interpretation of Puccini’s tragic classic opera. There is some wonderful imagery - like the sequence in which Cio-Cio-San, wearing a flowing white gown, stands on a platform surrounded by enigmatic Japanese typography, that rises optimistically, before it disintegrating at her feet like a deflated lover. The bondage-inspired opening scene when she descends from the clutches of a red spidery web is eye-boggling. The costumes are stunning with a touch of the erotic. But the digitals gee whizzery (10 LED screens exploding with monochrome and colour imagery) is overstated, leading our hearts away from the emotional impact. Instead of being carried away - like Cio-Cio-San - I remained grounded. Less is more. In many ways, I enjoyed this production more in hindsight, when the wonders of the visuals are a vibrant reminder of the spectacle. Musically, the orchestra soars and Mariana Hong (at July 22 performance) stole the show. The sound improved as the production took flight. But there is no question: getting dressed up and going to the Opera is always the most romantic of evenings. The anticipation; the location; walking up the staircase of the iconic Sydney Opera House. What could be more special than sipping bubbles while watching the buzz of Sydney Harbour as the lights from ferries and boats leave a glittering trail. It is simply a must-do experience.

    A brilliant tragedy with great leads and sets.No doubt true story for many and so sad. Some American lines that appeared Trump-esk.
