Puccini’s sublime masterpiece closes out our celebratory 2024–2025 season in grand style, with five performances conducted by VO’s Music Director, Maestro Jacques Lacombe. This extended run boasts a double cast bursting with world-class talents, including Tokyo-born soprano Yasko Sato. Praised for her “disarming, honest, refined and authentic” approach, she makes her VO/Canadian debut as Cio-Cio-San, having previously explored the role’s complexities in performances throughout Italy, the US, Belgium, Slovenia, Greece, Spain, and Japan.

Step into a world of imagination and wonder with Vancouver Opera's production of The Garden of Alice, composed by celebrated Canadian composer Elizabeth Raum. This 45 minute opera, performed by our talented Yulanda M. Faris Young Artists, reimagines Lewis Carroll's beloved Alice in Wonderland through a surreal and whimsical musical lens.
