	GEORGE GROSSMITH
		George Grossmith, one of the most famous of all Savoyards, was born on 9th December, 1847.
		Grossmith was very fond of "Princess Ida", and there is certainly much to be said for his opinion that this opera had the finest music of all.
		It is a further point of interest that whereas Grossmith, the established clown, deliberately played the ending of this opera with Jack Point swooning, as per libretto, Henry Lytton and George Thorne, in the provinces, played it as a tragedy.
