M. Butterfly, Closes South Coast Repertory’s Season
David Henry Hwang’s M. Butterfly, a tale of obsession, perception and the allure of fantasy, will conclude South Coast Repertory’s 2018-19 season. Hwang’s break-out hit—a Tony Award-winner and Pulitzer Prize finalist—is about more than steamy seduction and fantasy; inspired by a true account, it’s a compelling story of espionage, East-West relations, and betrayal. Desdemona Chiang, in her SCR debut, directs the show on the Segerstrom Stage, May 11-June 8. Tickets are available online at scr.org.
Tickets start at $23. Discounts are available for full-time students, patrons 25 years of age and under, fulltime educators, seniors and groups of 10 or more.
