* DawsonCasting: As is the norm for opera, Cio-Cio-San is never played by an actual teenager (she is 15 in the first act and 18 in the last two acts). Her role is very demanding, and it can take years of training before one is ready to take it on. An interesting variation occurs with her three-year old son, Sorrow, who almost always appears "big for his age", with actors around 5-7 - most likely so they'll behave themselves and stay where they're supposed to, not throw tantrums and ruin the show, etc.
