Plays
Previous versions of Madame Butterfly end with Butterfly’s suicide and her son’s abduction by the Pinkerton’s, who whisk him away to America. But what of her son? Does he eventually learn the circumstances of his mother’s death? If so, how does he respond? And if his response is to repudiate his parents and country, what manner of life does he adopt? And if the path he chooses leads to a tragic outcome? These are the questions addressed in BUTTERFLY'S CHILD.
