Introduction and prices

No opera can match the tragedy and sorrow of Puccini’s Madam
Butterfly. Set in Japan at the turn of the century, this tale of
the doomed love of an American naval lieutenant and his young,
Japanese bride inspired Puccini to write some of his most
magnificent and beautiful music.

Since its world premiere at the Royal Albert Hall in February
1998, this truly sensational production of Puccini’s tragic
masterpiece has left an indelible impression on the hearts and
minds of over three hundred thousand people and has received the
highest critical acclaim wherever it has been performed. By huge
popular demand, the unique and spectacular ‘in the
round’ staging of Madam Butterfly now returns to London. Once
more the floor of the Royal Albert Hall will be flooded with water
to create David Roger’s stunning design, with Madam
Butterfly’s house perched on stilts above the shimmering
surface of a traditional Japanese water garden.

Madam Butterfly is sung in English using Amanda Holden’s
highly acclaimed translation and is directed by renowned opera and
theatre director David Freeman. Peter Robinson conducts the Royal
Philharmonic Orchestra and a distinguished cast in this spectacular
production of Madam Butterfly – back at the Royal Albert Hall for a
limited season.
