First time, An Evening Performance!
Puccini’s Madama Butterfly is the tragic story of a naïve geisha girl and her American sailor lover, who enter into a “marriage”, a convenience for him but taken seriously by her. She renounces her religion to the vigorous objections of her uncle and signs the marriage contract, announcing she is now “Madama Pinkerton”. Puccini punctuates her long wait for his return in the poignant aria “Un bel di”, some day he will return.
Both performances at the The Tilden Auditorium at the Cape Cod Community College in West Barnstable.
