Oh, God.
Anyway, I considered adding one more — David Belasco's Madame Butterfly — to the total number in my earlier post, which would have required me starting from 1900. I figured saying that there were at least 12 from the 1920s through the 1950s would sound better. :)
Despite his famous belief in realism, there seem to have been no Asian actors in that original production of Madame Butterfly. |
