Ernest Ford

Described as a new and original English Comic Opera in two acts, this opera was produced at the Savoy Theatre from 13 May to 1July 1893 achieving 50 performances.

Set in a girls' boarding school and on the golf green attached to it. Bab, described by the authors as a "bad girl," plans to elope, but cannot decide whether to marry Jack the lancer or Tom the press student. Jane Annie, the school's "good girl," schemes to take one of them (Jack) off her hands, and calls on her powers of hypnotism to accomplish it.


The libretto, notes, introduction, midi files, and opening night review were submitted to the Gilbert & Sullivan Archive by Clifton Coles .
