Madame Butterfly Reviews

Stage and Cinema- Highly Recommended

"...Stage and cinema have merged at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion for what may be the most glorious and cogent version of Puccini's Madame Butterfly you will ever see. Certainly, this is the most inspiring and satisfying version of this oft-produced opera that I have ever seen. Better, the packed house last night for this auspicious opening of LA Opera's new season was so mesmerized that applause was often suspended for respectful, awed silence."

Broadway World- Recommended

"...Overall, the production is a heartfelt, thoughtful attempt at creating a Madame Butterfly that resonates with twenty-first century audiences. With a stunning score and decadent designs, it makes for an engaging evening at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion."
