Four actors perform on a minimalist stage with white panels and an orange backdrop; two are kneeling by a woman, one stands by a chair with pink flowers, and one stands alone at right.

A stage performance shows elaborately dressed performers in colorful robes and holding fans, with two figures in white facing them on a blue-lit set.

About Madama Butterfly

Cultures collide in Puccini’s poignant tale of a loyal geisha and a callous American naval officer whose fleeting romance leaves only devastation behind. In an exciting casting coup, three of today’s leading sopranos make their Met role debuts as Cio-Cio-San in a single season: Ailyn Pérez, Sonya Yoncheva, and Elena Stikhina. Tenors SeokJong Baek, Adam Smith—in his Met debut—and Matthew Polenzani co-star as Pinkerton in Anthony Minghella’s production, an “inspired vision” (The New York Times) that has become a classic.
