  • The Nautch Girl Or the Rajah of Chutneypore
    THE NAUTCH GIRL OR THE RAJAH OF CHUTNEYPORE LIBRETTO BY GEORGE DANCE MUSIC BY EDWARD SOLOMON WITH LYRICS BY GEORGE DANCE & FRANK DESPREZ 1891 Edited 2012 by David Trutt Los Angeles, California, USA email: [email protected] Web Site: www.haddon-hall.com 2 INTRODUCTION The Nautch Girl, or, The Rajah of Chutneypore is a comic opera in two acts, with a book by George Dance, lyrics by Dance and Frank Desprez and music by Edward Solomon. It opened on June 30, 1891 at the Savoy Theatre managed by Richard D’Oyly Carte and ran until January 16, 1892 for a respectable 200 performances, and then toured the British provinces. The cast included several players familiar to the Savoy’s audiences: Courtice Pounds as INDRU, Frank Thornton as PYJAMA, W. H. Denny as BUMBO, Frank Wyatt as BABOO CURRIE, Rutland Barrington as PUNKA — replaced by W. S. Penley when Barrington left the company to tour in a series of “musical duologues” with Jessie Bond. The part of CHINNA LOOFA was the last role that Jessie Bond created at the Savoy. She wrote in her memoirs that it was one of her favorites. The title role of HOLLEE BEEBEE (the Nautch Girl), was played by Lenore Snyder, the last of a number of actresses who had played Gianetta in The Gondoliers. When the Gilbert and Sullivan partnership disbanded after the production of The Gondoliers in 1889, impresario Richard D’Oyly Carte was forced to find new works to present at the Savoy Theatre. This was the first non-Gilbert and Sullivan “Savoy Opera”, but it was designed to resemble its G&S predecessors, in particular The Mikado, with its exotic oriental setting.

    SOCIAL DISCOURSE IN THE SAVOY THEATRE’S PRODUCTIONS OF THE NAUTCH GIRL (1891) AND UTOPIA LIMITED (1893): EXOTICISM AND VICTORIAN SELF-REFLECTION William L. Hicks, B.M. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF MUSIC UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2003 APPROVED: John Michael Cooper, Major Professor Margaret Notley, Committee Member Mark McKnight, Committee Member James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music C. Neal Tate, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Hicks, William L, Social Discourse in the Savoy Theatre’s Productions of The Nautch Girl (1891) and Utopia Limited (1893): Exoticism and Victorian Self-Reflection. Master of Music (Musicology), August 2003, 107 pp., 4 illustrations, 12 musical examples, references, 91 titles. As a consequence to Gilbert and Sullivan’s famed Carpet Quarrel, two operettas with decidedly “exotic” themes, The Nautch Girl; or, The Rajah of Chutneypore, and Utopia Limited; or, The Flowers of Progress were presented to London audiences. Neither has been accepted as part of the larger Savoy canon. This thesis considers the conspicuous business atmosphere of their originally performed contexts to understand why this situation arose. Critical social theory makes it possible to read the two documents as overt reflections on British imperialism. Examined more closely, however, the operettas reveal a great deal more about the highly introverted nature of exotic representation and the ambiguous dialogue between race and class hierarchies in late nineteenth-century British society.

  • Class, Respectability and the D'oyly Carte Opera Company 1877-1909
    THE UNIVERSITY OF WINCHESTER Faculty of Arts ‘Respectable Capers’ – Class, Respectability and the D’Oyly Carte Opera Company 1877-1909 Michael Stephen Goron Doctor of Philosophy June 2014 The Thesis has been completed as a requirement for a postgraduate research Degree of the University of Winchester The word count is: 98,856 (including abstract and declarations.) THE UNIVERSITY OF WINCHESTER ABSTRACT FOR THESIS ‘Respectable Capers’: Class, Respectability and the D’Oyly Carte Opera Company 1877-1909 Michael Stephen Goron This thesis will demonstrate ways in which late Victorian social and cultural attitudes influenced the development and work of the D’Oyly Carte Opera Company, and the early professional production and performance of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas. The underlying enquiry concerns the extent to which the D’Oyly Carte Opera organisation and its work relate to an ideology, or collective mentalité, maintained and advocated by the Victorian middle- classes. The thesis will argue that a need to reflect bourgeois notions of respectability, status and gender influenced the practices of a theatrical organisation whose success depended on making large-scale musical theatre palatable to ‘respectable’ Victorians. It will examine ways in which managerial regulation of employees was imposed to contribute to both a brand image and a commercial product which matched the ethical values and tastes of the target audience. The establishment of a company performance style will be shown to have evolved from behavioural practices derived from the absorption and representation of shared cultural outlooks. The working lives and professional preoccupations of authors, managers and performers will be investigated to demonstrate how the attitudes and working lives of Savoy personnel exemplified concerns typical to many West End theatre practitioners of the period, such as the drive towards social acceptability and the recognition of theatre work as a valid professional pursuit, particularly for women.

  • Gilbert and Sullivan's 'Respectable Capers'
    PALGRAVE STUDIES IN BRITISH MUSICAL THEATRE GILBERT AND SULLIVAN’S ‘RESPECTABLE CAPERS’ CLASS, RESPECTABILITY AND THE SAVOY OPERAS, 1877 – 1909 MICHAEL GORON Palgrave Studies in British Musical Theatre Series Editors Millie Taylor Department of Performing Arts University of Winchester Winchester , UK Dominic Symonds Lincoln School of Performing Arts University of Lincoln Lincoln , UK Aim of the Series Britain’s contribution to musical theatre in the late twentieth century is known and celebrated across the world. In historiographies of musical theatre, this assertion of British success concludes the twentieth century narrative that is otherwise reported as an American story. Yet the use of song and music in UK theatre is much more widespread than is often acknowledged. This series teases out the nuances and the richness of British musical theatre in three broad areas: British identity; Aesthetics and dramaturgies; Practices and politics.

    CHAPTER IX: l88S On 3 January 1885 the Clerk to the Leeds Justices sent a letter to the Grand Theatre which said that the Justices considered that 'strong hand rails' were necessary in the principal, and some of the other staircases in the theatre, and that the stage door should be made to open outwards. (It will be remembered that there had been an accident at the Theatre Royal, Leeds, in 1882, and that Watson had been asked to report on the safety of the Grand Theatre's exits in case of panic in 1883. It seems likely, therefore, that the Justices were now acting with an increased awareness of such dangers.) Lee Anderson received the letter, but passed it on to Kingston for the consideration of the directors. They, however, anticipated this, and decided at a meeting held before Lee Anderson sent on the letter, that the Justices' demands fell upon the theatre's lessee and not the company. Kingston ,\.,asaccordingly instructed to send the letter back to Lee Anderson. Whatever the propriety of this move, it is clearly concordant with the company's intention dating from the 1884 Annual General Meeting to make Wilson Barrett responsible for every expense that it could. This kind of action was no doubt necessitated by the 3% narrow margin of profit on which the company worked, and the strictness with which the directors controlled their expenditure is indicated by a letter to the company's auditors (Messrs John Routh) on 15 January 1885. Having completed the audit Messrs Routh had sent to the board an account for £3 l7s.
