When "M. Butterfly" by David Henry Hwang premiered in 1988, its remarkable story of international espionage and personal betrayal solidified its status as a modern classic. Based on the real-life affair between a French diplomat and a mysterious Chinese opera singer, it blurred the boundaries between male and female, East and West. For the 2017 Broadway Revival Version, Hwang has incorporated new material inspired by details of the relationship that have emerged since the play first seduced audiences. This intoxicating reimagining of M. BUTTERFLY examines the nature of love and the devastating cost of deceit. The play will be directed by Lou Okell. Auditions for 2 dancers, 2 men, and 3 women will be held June 8 & 9. The role of Song Liling will be played by Todd Santa Maria and Miles Everett will play the role of Rene Gallimard (content warning: nudity, suicide).
