Puccini's opera began its victorious march through the theaters of Europe almost immediately from the moment of its creation in 1904. Nine years later it was staged at the Mariinsky Theatre. The Buryat theatre, having staged the first production of Cio-Cio San in 1947, has turned to this brilliant work more than once since then. 

What is the main attraction of opera? Probably, the very atmosphere, which arises due to an exquisite melody with expressive inclusions, sometime or another action, and sometimes just the desire of the hero, is depicted by means of original Japanese music. By the way, Puccini, recognized as the best melodist of the twentieth century, is very fond of the Japanese, a monument was erected in his honor in Japan, precisely for this opera. It is remarkable that in the twenty-first century, viewers are still excited about the very plot of a young geisha who fell in love with an American Navy lieutenant, about her enormous spiritual strength, incapable of compromise.
