About this title

Synopsis

Originally produced by London’s Savoy Theatre post Gilbert and Sullivan, the libretto for The Lucky Star was based on an American musical which itself was based on a French comic opera. The plot revolved around a ridiculous King of a topsey turvey kingdom who cannot keep an annual holiday for lack of a prisoner to execute for the public amusement. The musical was noted for moving the Savoy musicals into the Edwardian era. Brookfield’s libretto brought the dialogue up to date turning it into a modern musical comedy and critics found it “a bright and joyous entertainment.” It was rumored at the time that Helen Carte had revised much of the book herself. Libretto only, complete book and lyrics.
