The world of Nero’s imperial court is set against the faith of the early Christians in a six-act spectacle featuring a palace banquet, the burning of Rome and Vinicius’s account of a Christian gathering.
Swiss mercenary Bumerli escapes a battle by climbing into Nadina’s bedroom. He is no heroic soldier, and his ammunition pouch holds chocolate rather than cartridges. Nadina is charmed by him, while learning that her fiancé Alexius is not the hero she imagined. Six months later Bumerli returns, and a chain of misunderstandings reveals Nadina’s jealousy and love for him. Bumerli is also revealed to be the son of a wealthy Swiss businessman, and the couple unite.
The Girl in the Taxi is a three-act musical comedy written by Stanislaus Stange, with music by Benjamin Hapgood Burt. Set in New York City, it is one of several adaptations of Le Fils à papa, a French comedy by Antony Mars and Maurice Desvallières. The 1910 Broadway production was produced by Albert H. Woods and directed by Carter DeHaven; the latter of whom also performed the role of Bertie Stewart.
The story follows the misbehaviors of Regina (Valeska Suratt) as she passes whooping cough to the numerous men she kisses. In the final act, her amours land her in divorce court, where she performs a dance routine borrowed from Suratt's vaudeville act.
A three-act comic opera by Julian Edwards and Stanislaus Stange. The entry documents its Syracuse premiere and later Broadway production but does not describe the plot.
