The third Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour heralds the collaboration of Opera Australia and Spanish creative team La Fura dels Baus. The result is an inspired reimagining of Giacomo Puccini’s Madama Butterfly.

There is brilliance in this show. There are moments I felt physically, moments like punches, moments of numbness. But I also found it kind of frustrating.

Although a sometimes mildly confusing production of an often confounding play, this is nonetheless a fine rendition of one of Shakespeare’s comparatively lesser-performed works.

Farce requires meticulously plotted jokes pulled off with perfect comic timing by the actors. A good farce is a rare beast indeed.

It is clear from the structure of the evening that the enjoyment you get out of attending an event such as this, is solely dependent on the audience.

Go and see this play. I laughed. I cried. And I will definitely be going to see it again. Wonderful, wonderful theatre.

I feel like there was the kernel of something brilliant in here, but that the show lost touch with what that was.
