Synopsis
The Complete Annotate Gilbert & Sullivan provides the complete text of all the Gilbert and Sullivan operas which are still performed today, together with extensive annotations covering lost' songs, alterations and additions, obscure allusions, production points, and comments of interest. No other book provides such extensive commentary on the texts of the Savoy Operas nor provides such a source of innocent merriment to fans of the incomparable Victorian duo For each opera, there is a short introduction describing how the work came to be written, and giving its performance history. The text, including stage directions, is given on the right-hand page, and on the left (keyed in by line numbers) are notes. These give such information as the identity of a real-life person appearing or mentioned as a character, wordings that were different in the original edition (the one sent to the Lord Chamberlain for licensing), changes made for the first American performance, glosses on technical terms (eg. legal terms), literary references, cross-references to similar items in other Savoy operas, comments from first-night critics, and many other things Previously published by Penguin in two pap

Hardback. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Sam Savitt (illustrator). NOT a library discard; privately owned! Hardback book with dust jacket. The BRIGHT dust jacket is NOT price-clipped and has a few tiny chips. The book is sturdy, crisp and neat with a few page folds. NO WRITING and NO TEARS but there is some soiling on the closed page edges that is pretty distracting. The text pages are clean and neat. PACKED WITH CARE AND SHIPPED IN A BOX! THIS HEAVY BOOK WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL POSTAGE FOR NON-U.S. BUYERS! Seller Inventory # 28915-x-B101
