Re: The Cambodia Opera Project: "Madame Butterfly"
The last time I saw Madame Butterfly was in Durban when I was a teenager. I can't wait for this production!
Once you've read the dictionary, every other book is just a remix.

‘Madama Butterfly’ Coming To Cambodia In 2023
01/09/2023
‘Madama Butterfly’, one of the world’s most cherished ‘love story’ operas, will take stage for the first time in Cambodia in December 2023, marking a historic moment for cultural form in the Kingdom.
B2B Cambodia spoke with Gabriele Faja, director of production for the upcoming Madama Butterfly performance in Cambodia.
The Italian masterpiece, penned in 1904 by Giacomo Puccini, and based on the play Madame Butterfly by David Belasco, weaves a poignant story of unrequited love, entwining a young 15-year-old Japanese girl’s heart with that of an American naval officer, but is destined to be doomed with devastating consequences. The opera was also the basis for the hit stage musical Miss Saigon.
The production of Madama Butterfly in Cambodia aims to celebrate the 70th anniversary of Japan-Cambodia diplomatic relations and the birth of Italian opera composer Giacomo Puccino.
This cultural event is funded by the Italian Embassy in Bangkok and the Japanese Embassy in Phnom Penh.
Gabriele Faja told B2B Cambodia that this is not the first time that opera has been brought to Cambodia. His team produced previous performances in 2018 and 2019 as a testament to bringing a bigger opera experience to Cambodia in 2023.
