Konnichiwa!

Great news for opera lovers and fans of Japanese culture around the world! The Pacific Opera Project (POP) has officially released the full broadcast of their groundbreaking production of "Madama Butterfly" on YouTube Live.

Whether you missed the live performance or want to relive the magic, you can now experience this historic, bilingual masterpiece from the comfort of your home.

Why This Production is Special (この舞台の何が特別なのか)

This is not the "Madama Butterfly" you are used to. It is the first-ever true bilingual production—sung in English for the American characters and Japanese for the Japanese characters. This innovative approach strips away the "exoticism" and reveals the raw, human story of cultural misunderstanding.

Authenticity by Sueko Oshimoto (KIMONO SK)

Of course, the visual highlight is the authenticity. Sueko Oshimoto designed and styled the kimonos to be historically accurate to the 1900s Nagasaki setting. No fake costumes here—only real kimono, dressed with the correct shosa (movements) and respect for tradition.

A tense scene on stage showing the contrast between the American naval officers in white uniforms and Japanese men in formal dark kimonos.
