| Note: | |
ENO revives Anthony Minghella’s Olivier Award-winning Madam Butterfly as a tribute to the life of the great film director. Having won great acclaim for a series of remarkable films, including his Oscar-laden The English Patient, Minghella, alongside his wife and Associate Director Carolyn Choa, turned his creative genius to Puccini's masterpiece. Puccini's beautiful music underscores the emotional tale of a Japanese geisha girl and her devoted love for a heartless American naval lieutenant. With its sumptuous sets, stunning costumes and evocative use of Far Eastern theatre traditions, The Sunday Telegraph described it as the most beautiful show of the year in operatic London. Carolyn Choa directs this revival, conducted by ENO Music Director Edward Gardner. Judith Howarth returns to the title role, leading an outstanding cast including Christine Rice and Bryan Hymel. |
