Final Bow for Yellowface, The Butterfly Project

  • サマリー

  • Author and Co-Founder of Final Bow for Yellowface, Phil Chan's discussion about racial appropriation and some of the caricatured projections upon Asians that have been an age-old habit in the United States, through the arts and through other cultural instruments, speaks to a world of realities which extend far beyond the theater and the stage.

    He was an integral part of Boston Lyric Opera's reimagining of Puccini's Madama Butterfly presented at the Colonial Theater in September, 2023. While Madama Butterfly is loved by audiences and remains an essential part of the traditional repertoire, the opera’s history has reputation for portraying inaccurate, harmful representations of Japanese culture, contributing to stereotypes of Asian and Asian-Americans. BLO engaged with artists, board members, community leaders, organizations, and preeminent scholars to discuss Madama Butterfly, particularly around the areas of cultural appropriation, race, and gender stereotypes—and the wide-ranging impact of this opera for Asian artists.
