By: Jack Heape TCO’s Clinton Street Cinema Series presents a double feature showing of two classic films relating to the story of our upcoming production of Puccini’s Madame Butterfly! The Opera Center at 315 Clinton Street is transformed for one afternoon into an art cinema, complete with popcorn & concessions! As a special intermission feature, exhibits of exquisite Japanese apparel courtesy of Kyoto Kimono and Asian Photography by Randy Cummings of Bunn Hill Photo will be on display and available for purchase in the lobby. Kyoto Kimono owner Nancy McDonough, who lived in Kyoto for several years, will be on hand to discuss the garments, textile techniques, and the interplay between kimono and Japanese culture. McDonough began collecting vintage kimono robes in the early 90s in Kyoto, Japan and Kyoto Kimono was then born out of her desire to tell their story. Her unique collection of vintage Japanese garments ranges in date from 1930-70. In addition, wearable accessories, scarves, purses, and totes made from recycled vintage garments are offered in her Japanique Boutique collection. Kyoto Kimono is an online vintage Japanese garment shop based in upstate New York. For more information, call (607) 765-3960 (9-5.
