Madama Butterfly / 2-8 November at the Bord Gáis Theatre

Irish National Opera presents MADAMA BUTTERFLY, running 2nd - 8th November at the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre. Proudly cast with the help of Fishpond, we're wishing all the cast and crew the very best.
"Love. Sacrifice. Betrayal. In this timeless story of love and loss, Cio-Cio-San gives up everything for U.S. Navy Lieutenant Pinkerton. Ignoring warnings from her maid Suzuki and from American consul Sharpless, and despite threats from her uncle Bonze, she remains true to her lover.
Renowned Irish soprano Celine Byrne sings Madama Butterfly, her 2019 performance in the role was lauded by the Irish Times as “outstanding”, with the Sunday Independent describing her voice as “glorious”.
In this brand-new production of Puccini’s masterpiece, she is joined by tenor Otar Jorjikia as Pinkerton, mezzo-soprano Hyona Kim as Suzuki, baritone Iurii Samoilov as Sharpless and bass-baritone John Molloy as Bonze."
