Rida Johnson Young (ca. 1869-1926) was one of the most prolific
female playwrights of her time, as well as a lyricist and
librettist in the musical theater. She wrote more than thirty
full-length plays, operettas, and musical comedies, 500 songs, and
four novels, including Naughty Marietta, Lady Luxury, The Red
Petticoat, and When Love is Young . Despite her extensive output,
no significant study of her work has been produced. This book looks
at her musical theater works with in-depth analyses of her
librettos and lyrics, as well as her working relationships with
other writers, performers, and producers, particularly Lee and J.
J. Shubert. Using archival materials such as original typescripts,
correspondence, and reviews, the book contextualizes her work in
the early twentieth century professional theater and provides a
window into the standard practices of writing and production of the
era.
