The subject of musical theatre usually brings to mind the Broadway musical, but this collection of essays reveals that operetta was the pre-eminent musical-theatrical entertainment on the urban stage from the 1850s to the early 1930s. The authors explore operetta's production and reception in more than a dozen countries.
