A musical absurdity, produced by D'Oyly Carte and toured during 1880. Believed to have been written by Ralph Horner and also to have been performed in Huddersfield, Bolton and Hanley in October and November 1879. No further details.
Produced at the Savoy Theatre from 2nd July to 3rd November as a companion piece to The Pirates of Penzance, and from 8th or 10th November to 7th December 1900 as a companion piece to Patience, a total of 131 performances
Words: A.O'D. Bartholeyns. Music: Hamilton Clarke.
The Outpost is an adaptation by Bartholeyns of Der Vierjhrige Posten by Theodor Krner. No copy of printed libretto or vocal score in British Library, but there is a copy of a fantasia for flute and piano, based on airs from the piece, suggesting that the vocal score may have been published. The piece is not listed by Allardyce Nicoll, and there appears to be no copy in the Lord Chamberlain's collection.
