		Little did he think, when applauding her from the pit at Daly's -- or waiting to see her come out of the stage door -- that she would become a dear friend and one of his leading ladies.
		But songs which he composed for that despised little operetta made their appearance later in his greatest successes and were greeted as gems.

	The Legacy of the Century (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		England, on the other hand, has felt the influence of the French and Italian schools, and has sent forth operas and operettas impressed by the elegance and volubility of the former and the geniality of the latter.
		I witnessed in London the astounding success of a sort of operetta written by an English composer, who, in a twinkling, had scaled the heights of fame.
		Away with the dreams, away with the visions; out with the stops, the clarionet, the octave flute, the cornet, the bombarda, the bells; let loose the delights of the joyous, shrill, and sonorous voices, and all the powers of the mighty fabric!

	No. 948: Moonfall: 1969
		The youth gets together his materials to build a bridge to the moon, or, perchance, a palace or temple, on the earth, and, at length, the middle-aged man concludes to build a woodshed with them.
		It's time to validate what we did 25 years ago, not by blowing it into a success that it wasn't, but by building a new space program on our age-old, still-valid, dream of going to the stars.

		In the evening we saw "Rosalinda" which is the English title for Johannes Strauss's operetta "Fledermaus" or "The Bat".
		I'd have given a lot if you could have seen it; it was full of his waltzes, which seem doubly good when they accompany a Viennese scene on the stage.
		This evening we saw the most popular current musical comedy in town, "Perchance to Dream." Then we went walking and saw our first good sample of "when the lights go on again." Just a few days ago London turned on its powerful floodlights for the first time, lighting up the streets and buildings like day.

	A History of the Musical
		The European operetta was transplanted to New York by works such as Reginald DeKoven's Robin Hood (1890), Victor Herbert's Babes in Toyland (1903) and Naughty Marietta (1910), with Sweet Mysterty of Life, Rudolf Friml's The Firefly (1912), mostly composed by immigrants.
		Jerome Kern's melodies highlighted musicals, staged in humble venues, such as Sally (1920) that were relatively humble and ordinary compared with the opulence of the extravaganzas that were being staged by the larger theaters.
		After writing an Al Jolson hit, Swanee (1919), Gershwin entered the arena of Broadway musicals with Lady Be Good (1924), that launched the career of dancer Fred Astaire and established the trend of having the title-song as one of the main hits.

		Etharei's story has its share of hurt/comfort, drama, angst, action, and mystery, but the main conflict is augmented by the fact that characters unused to working together are suddenly forced into situations where they must rely upon each other.
		I would actually say that M. Theis writes angst more than she writes drama, but however you want to interpret it, the stories mentioned here are dark, gripping, and incapable of being put aside once they're begun.
		Much of the stories' focus and drive comes from character introspection, particularly the story "Perchance to Dream." And as a huge fan of character introspection myself, I love it.
