"Li-Li was sensational as
Butterfly, floating from meek, obedient girl, to weeping, devastated wife" GetBracknell.co.uk on Park
Opera's opening night
“Li Li was utterly believable and sung
beautifully. She was born to play the role of Butterfly”
Stephen
Leatherland, producer - Theatre Productions UK Ltd (after attending the preview of "Finding
Butterfly")
"Rising soprano Li
Li" - "Excellent performances from Li Li; an introspective, deeply felt
Butterfly" Time-Out
"Butterfly, played by Li Li, provides a riveting performance from start to
finish. Her superb vocals keep you enchanted throughout and her ability to
project emotion into the audience was overwhelming"
The Upcoming
"The
singing of the main character Cio-Cio San [sung by Li Li], following the
plot's development, is at times high and excited, at times warm and soft;
always making the whole audience's hearts beat"
The Chinese
Weekly
At the end of the performance, the audience could not stop applauding with
excitement until the whole cast left the stage for the last time. Only at
that moment the audience seemed able to come back to reality, from the
performance of the extraordinary "Finding Butterfly".
The Chinese
Weekly
"Most
notably, Li Li, who is small of frame but definitely Puccinian of voice, is
magnetic as Butterfly [...]. On this night, she didn’t
seem to tire for the whole 90 minutes and created a warm and vulnerable
character".
Bachtrack
"Li Li's tone is full of
oriental softness, adding during the progress of the plot constant layers of
shyness, joy, longing and despair. Her performance, in perfect harmony with
the entire process of the love story and the characters, reflected an
emotion that was incomparable to any other performance. She not only
conquered the audience, she also brought them a memorable live experience".
Nouvelles D'Europe, UK
Edition
The singing is
great. [...] Li Li is a touching, rather well-acted Butterfly. She jumps
around the stage, a constant inexhaustible presence.
