Premiere of Madama Butterfly”: Magical open-air performance in Koblenz!
The anticipation for the premiere of Giacomo Puccini's touching opera "Madama Butterfly" is growing: on July 5, 2025, the Koblenz Theater will bring the composer's most famous opera to the stage in the picturesque ambience of the Ehrenbreitstein Fortress. Every year the theater delights with an open-air production, and this year the audience can expect a very special production that will shine at nightfall with illuminated stage sets by Christian Binz. The Rheinische Philharmonie State Orchestra provides the musical accompaniment, but is not visible due to partition walls and the stage design, which gives the performance a mysterious touch. Rhein Zeitung reports that ...
What does the audience expect? “Madama Butterfly” tells the tragic story of the young Japanese woman Cio-Cio-San, who becomes involved in an unhappy marriage with an American naval officer. Puccini's musical composition gives the plot deep emotions, which are further enhanced during the performance by the impressive stage design. The event is certainly an experience for young and old that culture and opera lovers should not miss. All relevant information about the production can also be found on the Koblenz Theater website.
