Academic attention has focused on America's influence on European
stage works, and yet dozens of operettas from Austria and Germany
were produced on Broadway and in the West End, and their impact on
the musical life of the early twentieth century is undeniable. In
this ground breaking book, Derek B. Scott examines the cultural
transfer of operetta from the German stage to Britain and the USA
and offers a historical and critical survey of these operettas and
their music. In the period 1900-1940, over sixty operettas were
produced in the West End, and over seventy on Broadway. A study of
these stage works is important for the light they shine on a
variety of social topics of the period - from modernity and gender
relations to new technology and new media - and these are
investigated in the individual chapters. This book is also
available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
