Item description from seller

The Doctor of Alcantara is a comedic opera in two acts, written by Benjamin E. Woolf and first performed in 1862. The story follows the antics of a group of characters in the Spanish town of Alcantara, including the titular Doctor, a quack physician who is known for his outrageous remedies and questionable medical practices. Other characters include a wealthy countess, her scheming servant, a young artist, and a group of local townspeople.As the plot unfolds, the Doctor becomes embroiled in a series of misadventures and misunderstandings, including a mistaken identity plot and a romantic subplot involving the artist and the countess. The opera is filled with lively musical numbers, including solos, duets, and ensemble pieces, and features a mix of comedic and romantic themes.Overall, The Doctor of Alcantara is a charming and entertaining work that showcases the wit and musical talent of its creator, Benjamin E. Woolf. It remains a popular choice for opera companies and theaters around the world, and is beloved by audiences for its catchy tunes, hilarious plot twists, and lovable characters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
