Opera and theatre lovers will be allured into a web of deceit and betrayal throughout this elegant musical drama exploring notions of identity and desire. Co-produced by Macao Experimental Theatre and Toronto’s Music Picnic, Mr. Shi and his Lover engages the audience in an intimate portrayal of forgiveness and redemption, dissecting the intense love affair between a respected diplomat and a male opera performer.
This provocative tale departs from M. Butterfly’s classic narrative. Hovering teasingly between a play and a recital, this is a fine example of the finest Asian contemporary drama, amongst the best theatre ever produced in Macau!
