This revival of Madama Butterfly offers the unique opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the LNO's original 1925 production: the original set and costume design, as well as the basic structure of the direction, have been preserved. The production's historical aspect is unique on a global scale: the performance is one of the oldest preserved opera productions in the world. The opera tells the story of a Japanese girl's impossible love for an American navy lieutenant. Her love is as tragic and beautiful as the flight of a butterfly at dusk, when the light warms, dazzles, and burns.

Šis Madama Butterfly iestudējums piedāvā unikālu iespēju izbaudīt LNO satriecošā 1925. gada iestudējuma skaistumu: ir saglabāta oriģinālā komplektācija, un tērpi tika atjaunoti pēc oriģinālajām skicēm. Opera stāsta par japāņu geišu Čio-Čio-Sanu, kuras mīlestība pret amerikāņu flotes leitnantu Pinkertonu galu galā dzen viņu nāvē.
