LONJ is
proud to ring in its 30th season with this traditional, fully staged
production of Madama Butterfly, sure to captivate
audiences with breathtaking melodies and powerful themes of hope,
longing and heartbreak. This beloved opera features
internationally renowned soloists, the LONJ orchestra directed by
Maestro Jason Tramm and lavish period sets and costumes. Sung in
Italian with English supertitles.
Seating for
these performances is very limited, so please be sure to apply as soon
as possible if you are interested. If the number of tickets requested
exceeds capacity, priority will be given to those patrons who have not
applied for this program in the past, otherwise, tickets will be
assigned on a first come, first served basis.”
