Venue

JACCC's Aratani Theatre
244 San Pedro Street, Downtown Los Angeles, Los Angeles

Co-librettist Eiki Isomura returns to conduct POP’s acclaimed production of Madama Butterfly 蝶々夫人 at the Aratani Theater at the Japanese American Cultural and Community Center. Kimono designer Sueko Oshimoto of SK Kimono, and the South Bay Singers led by Naoko Suga also return for this production, which was first premiered in 2019 in LA’s Little Tokyo and was described as “on a visual scale beyond anything it has taken on before – a sumptuously costumed, fully staged, bilingual co-production” by San Francisco Classical Voice.
