Giacomo Puccini
Fragility, love and death in Nagasaki
Premiere 5. 4. 2025
In Japan, a geisha is synonymous with beauty. But in Puccini’s famous opera, she is above all a symbol of fidelity. If her love is trampled upon, she has no choice but to die with honour. This production by the exceptional and internationally acclaimed production team of director Jakub Šmíd, with music by chief conductor David Švec, promises an enchanting theatrical experience.
The mysterious landscape of Japanese cherry trees in blossom will once again become the venue of the immortal story full of intoxicating music that is able to capture the slightest tremble of the human heart.
