The operetta is set in a far away, long ago Japan that never really was ( though it bears more than a passing resemblance to Victorian Britain.) This photo was of a supremely handsome production done at Canada's Stratford Festival.
The tree is pure bonsai, even if it lacks a pot! It is hard to see in the photo but is a pine, though not the modern, dense foliage pad pine, put the lanky more open vision of the pine seen in old Japanese prints.
| Another image-a screen cap so the quality is poor, but you can see the pine foliage. |
| Naki-poo and Yum Yum, in front of what looks alot like Ume. |
