SUMMARY:Butterfly Conversations: Conversation with Creators and Artists
DESCRIPTION:Modern productions and interpretations of Madame Butterfly often aim to challenge or subvert the Orientalist and exoticist elements.

In this roundtable conversation\, hear from the artists and creative team about Opera Philadelphia’s new production of Madame Butterfly. \nModerator: Dr. Derrell Acon\, Vice President of People Operations and Inclusion \nPanel: Yuki Izumihara (Production Designer)\, Karen Chia-ling Ho (Cio Cio San)\, Kristen Choi (Suzuki)\, and Ethan Heard (Director) \nPart of Butterfly Conversations\, Opera Philadelphia’s series that aims to foster open and inclusive conversations\, providing an opportunity to create an experience that not only contextualizes Madame Butterfly but also contributes to a broader dialogue on the role of opera in contemporary society.
