After the American Civil War, a young man from Maine takes a
diplomatic position in Nagasaki, Japan, where he and his aide,
Harada, explore the city and absorb its history and culture. There,
they befriend the lovely geisha Cio-Cio and attend her wedding to
the American naval lieutenant Pinkerton. When they discover the
marriage is nothing but an empty sham, devastating consequences
inexorably follow… Derived from Puccini’s grand
opera, Butterfly deftly retells the tragic story of the
young geisha and her seducer as a captivating story of discovery,
tragedy, and enlightenment.
