Widely considered among the best operas in the world, “Madama Butterfly” can be experienced on campus with a performance that promises to astound by delivering the intensity of a full-scale production in a small concert hall.
The Fresno State Symphony Orchestra and Opera Theatre will present Puccini’s famous opera with performances at 8 p.m. Friday, March 8, and at 2 p.m. Sunday, March 10, at the Fresno State Concert Hall. Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for faculty and seniors and $5 for students.
The opera is produced by Fresno State professor Dr. Anthony P. Radford and features conductor and professor Dr. Thomas Loewenheim. The Fresno State production of “Madama Butterfly” is one of few operas in the Central Valley where a full orchestra accompanies singers. The collaboration between the Fresno State Symphony Orchestra and the Fresno State Opera offers the community the chance to experience “Madama Butterfly” the way it was intended.
