Opera: The Last Queen

This original opera depicts the turbulent life of Princess Kazuko Nashimoto (Lee Kazuko), who was born into the Japanese imperial family and, through an unexpected twist of fate, married Lee Eun, the last crown prince of the Joseon Dynasty. Beginning with a political marriage of the century, the story weaves a tale of love and truth in which she deeply understood and continued to support her husband, even as she was tossed about by the tides of history. Chung Wol-son, who serves as both producer and lead actress, conducted in-depth research into historical facts from both Japan and Korea to craft the libretto. The music is an original work that fuses Japanese and Korean rhythms with a foundation of Western classical music, and her singing has earned high praise for being “soul-stirring.” Since its premiere at the New National Theatre in 2015, this historic production has enjoyed a long-running success, with waiting lists for tickets forming in various locations—and it will finally reach its final curtain in Tokyo. Please experience this moving performance, woven together by a compelling performance that serves as a culmination of her life and career, and a production featuring faithfully restored royal court costumes from the era.
