A visually stunning Madama Butterfly from New Zealand Opera

Simon Holden, 19th April

Sometimes in a performance there is a moment when everything just comes together; when every element on stage is operating at such a high level that the performance transcends these elements and causes one to become so immersed in the proceedings that you forget you’re at a performance at all.
