a week-long engagement June 11 with Puccini’s Turandot.

The company will perform Turandot again on June 13, as well as Madama Butterfly on June 12 and 16, and Gilbert and Sullivan’s The Mikado on June 14 and 15, at 8:30 p.m. each evening.

Turandot is the trie of a cruel and beautiful princess who will only marry the suitor who can answer her three riddles — the penalty for failure is death. Madama Butterfly is the tragedy of a faithful Japanese woman who marries a faithless American Navy Lieutenant and kills herself upon discovering his betrayal.

The Mikado is a comic twist on the same themes, telling a.tale love, hidden identities and barely-prevented executions in comic and-satirical soag.
