Beneath the layers there’s a contemporary story of our society

“Puccini composed the opera in the heyday of exoticism and orientalism – a Europe-centric view of the Far East.
As we pull down decades-old stereotypes embedded in the work and reveal the people beneath them, the central themes of the opera come to include both the psychology of the characters and a story of our society.”

-Director Sofia Adrian Jupither
