Act IEarly 1900’s NagasakiOn a terrace outside a house overlooking the harborB. F. Pinkerton, a US Naval Lieutenant, is inspectingthe house he has leased from a Japanese marriagebroker, Gore, who has also obtained a young geishawife, Cio-Cio-San, and servants for the Lieutenant.Sharpless, the American Consul, arrives and Pinkerton begins to boast about how great the sailor’s life iscollecting women around the world from port to portand, though she does not know it yet, Cio-Cio-Sanis no exception. She believes that the 999-yearmarriage contract Pinkerton has signed is proof ofhis devotion, even though the contract includes achance for annulment at the end of every month.Sharpless warns the young Lieutenant that Cio-CioSan may not be taking the marriage so lightly, butPinkerton brushes him off saying that one day he willmarry a real American wife.Cio-Cio-San is heard singing about her new life.When she reaches the terrace she tells Pinkertonshe was once wealthy but then became a geishaand how happy she is now. Her relatives gossipabout the couple. Quietly she shows Pinkerton herdearest possessions but hides the sword used byher father to commit suicide. Cio -Cio- San explainsher plan to convert to his Christian faith. The ImperialCommissioner performs the wedding and all toast tothe happy couple until The Bonze, a Buddhist priestand Cio-Cio-San’s uncle, scolds the young bride forrenouncing her ancestors’ religion. Angered by thisoutburst, Pinkerton sends his guests away and thecouple are left alone to sing of their love for eachother.21
Act IIOver a year laterInside the house Cio-Cio-San awaits her husband’sreturn from America as Suzuki, Cio-Cio-San’s servant, prays to the gods. Suzuki then shows Cio-CioSan what little money they have left in the hope thatshe will realise Pinkerton is not returning and thatshe needs to move on. Cio-Cio-San tells her servantto have faith and that Pinkerton will return. Sharpless enters with a letter sent by the Lieutenant, butbefore he has the chance to read it, Goro enters witha rich suitor Prince Yamadori. He has been marriedand divorced many times and Cio-Cio-San rejectsthe idea of a new husband. She explains that sheis already married. After Goro and the Prince exit,Sharpless is left to read the letter to Cio-Cio-San,which suggests that her husband may not return toher. Suzuki brings out her baby son, Trouble, insisting that once Pinkerton knows he has a son he willreturn and, if not, she would rather die than go backto the life of a geisha. Seeing her devotion, Sharpless decides not to reveal the full contents of theletter. A signal is heard in the distance announcingPinkerton’s ship’s arrival. Cio-Cio-San is full of joyand excitement and has Suzuki pick flowers. Theythen begin a waiting vigil.In the morning Suzuki insists that Cio-Cio-Sanrest. She departs humming a lullaby to the baby.Sharpless enters the house with Pinkerton while hisnew American wife lingers in the garden. Suzukiagrees to gently break the news to Cio-Cio-San.Pinkerton finding the situation unbearable rushes outof the house. Cio-Cio-San comes in excited to seePinkerton but seeing Kate Pinkerton, she realises thetruth and agrees to give up her baby if the Lieutenantreturns for him. After sending everyone away, shetakes the Tanti sword that her father used to commitsuicide. Choosing to die with honor rather thanlive in disgrace, she gets ready to take her own life.Right then Suzuki places Trouble into the room topersuade Cio-Cio-San not to take her life.22
