About this exposition

Butterfly: Metamorphosis for a Modern World Opera, a powerful art form known for its emotive storytelling and vocal prowess, has long been celebrated for its ability to captivate audiences. However, the historical context of opera has also given rise to numerous issues of racial representation and cultural sensitivity. Over the years, the practice of blackface and yellowface in certain opera productions has perpetuated harmful stereotypes and alienated diverse audiences. This exposition aims to examine the implications of these practices and explore potential solutions to foster a more inclusive and culturally sensitive operatic environment.
