Talk:The Red Hussar

Assessment
This needs a plot summary. -- Ssilvers (talk) 23:54, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I would be happy to put one in. The only thing stopping me is that I have only one source and that is Kurt Ganzl's summary. It might not be appropriate to copy it, word for word, in this space. What do *you* think, Ssilvers? Slfarrell (talk) 16:08, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

No, you can't copy it, but you can paraphrase it, or if you have the libretto, you can just summarize the libretto in your own words. Thanks! -- Ssilvers (talk) 17:26, 14 January 2009 (UTC)


 * That's what I thought. Turns out I don't have it anymore, must have deleted it. Cliff is looking through his sent messages to see if he's got a copy but if I have to paraphrase it, why bother? I think there is a libretto at University of Wisconsin and since I'm producing this in October, I guess I better find it! Slfarrell (talk) 21:07, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Temporarily, until you get the libretto, can you just put in a quick paragraph on the plot so that people can have some idea of what the show's about? BTW, for an example of how the plot summary should eventually look, see: The Chieftain. Best regards, -- Ssilvers (talk) 21:14, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

The Dorothy crowd
It looks like after Cellier's Dorothy (opera) and his next show, Doris (opera), pretty much the whole cast appeared in The Red Hussar. I bet there's some history there worth noting. -- Ssilvers (talk) 21:40, 14 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Doh! I figured it out myself.  They must have been under contract to the Lyric Theatre.  -- Ssilvers (talk) 21:44, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
