"Woven around a narrated plot of charming nonsense, the music scientilllates with lifting Veinnese walt/es and capitating melodies filled with fresh and melodic invention.

And dance we will, with the famous "Grisette' (popularly called can can) girls and a wait/ duo ? all singers front our own ranks. "All of the operetta's music will be presented but the performance will be shortened to a fast paced eighty minutes by the devices of narration of the plot and elimina tion of the entracte.
