15 Jun 2023  2788 | Cambodia Events & Sports

Madama Butterfly is considered one of the most famous operas in the world, and this will be the first time it is staged in Cambodia, marking a historic moment in the country's artistic landscape. The overwhelming success of the previous productions has shown that Cambodia is eager to embrace western high-art forms, and this event will surely be a testament to that.

The production, Madama Butterfly by Giacomo Puccini, is set to celebrate the centenary of the esteemed Italian composer's birth and the 70th anniversary of Japan-Cambodia diplomatic relations.

This grandiose celebration of Italian opera promises to be an unforgettable experience, featuring over 70 performers on stage, including renowned Italian and Japanese opera stars.

As the musical highlight of 2023 in Cambodia, Madama Butterfly promises to be a spectacular production that music lovers simply cannot afford to miss.

The team responsible for 2 sold-out Operas productions in Cambodia in 2018 and 2019 is now expanded and actively working to stage one of the largest classical music events in Cambodia with over 70 performers on stage - Madama Butterfly by Giacomo Puccini. We celebrate Italian Opera in grand style to celebrate composer Giacomo Puccini’s centenary and the 70th anniversary of Japan-Cambodia diplomatic relations.

Languages & Translatiions

Madama Butterfly, one of opera's most enduring tales of unrequited love, tells the tragic story of Cio-Cio-San, a young Japanese girl who falls in love with American naval officer Pinkerton, with devastating consequences. The poignant score composed by Puccini adds depth and emotion to this heart-wrenching tale.

As customary with Italian Opera, this production is sung in Italian. However, to make it accessible to everyone, there will be live subtitles and a printed translation in English. This will allow the audience to fully immerse themselves in the beauty and drama of the performance, regardless of their language proficiency.
