MADAME BUTTERFLY A Tragedy of Japan – The heart-wrenching story of a beautiful young Geisha who sacrifices her family, her religion and, ultimately, her life for her American husband. Butterfly is the young bride of Lieutenant Pinkerton, who buys Butterfly’s love while stationed in Japan with no intention of ever taking her home to America.
