Met Opera: Madama Butterfly
$30-$300
Soprano Eleonora Buratto takes on the touchstone title role of the tragic geisha, following earlier Met successes as Norina in Don Pasquale and Liù in Turandot. Tenor Brian Jagde is the callous American naval officer who betrays her, alongside mezzo-soprano Elizabeth DeShong as her devoted maid Suzuki and baritone David Bizic as the consul Sharpless. Alexander Soddy conducts Anthony Minghella's evocative, ever-popular staging.
All audience members must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and wear face masks at all times inside the Met, except when eating or drinking in designated areas.
