Eileen (musical)

''Eileen'' is a comic opera (sometimes described as a musical) with music by Victor Herbert and lyrics and book by Henry Blossom, based loosely on the 1835 novel ''Rory O'Moore'' by Herbert's grandfather, Samuel Lover.〔Clarke, Kevin. ("The Irish Have a Great Day Tonight: “Eileen” on New World Records" ), Operetta Research Center September 4, 2014〕 Set in 1798, the story concerns an Irish revolutionary arrested by the British for treason. Eileen, his nobly born sweetheart, helps him to escape by disguising him as a servant.
After two Cleveland performances at the Colonial Theatre on January 1–2, 1917 titled ''Hearts of Erin'', the musical moved on to Boston, changing its name to ''Eileen''.〔 It then opened at the Shubert Theatre on March 19, 1917 and ran for only 64 performances. It was produced by Joe Weber, formerly of the comedy duo Weber and Fields. It then toured, but a fire destroyed its sets and costumes three months into the tour.〔(Information from MusicWeb International )〕〔Theatre program, Landmark on the Park, NYC, Light Opera of New York, March 16–17, 2012〕 The show was not revived in New York until the end of the 20th century. In 1982, a single on-book concert performance was given at Manhattan's Town Hall, featuring E. G. Marshall as O'Day, Judy Kaye as Lady Maude and Roderick Cook as Sir Reginald.〔Wilson, John S. ("Operetta: First ''Eileen'' in New York Since 1917" ), ''The New York Times'', December 15, 1982〕 In 1997, it was produced and recorded by the Ohio Light Opera.〔 In 2012, a small-scale production was given by the Light Opera of New York.〔〔Forbes, Harry. ("''Eileen'' (Light Opera of New York)" ), HarryForbes.com, March 20, 2012〕
Herbert was eager to write an "Irish" musical to celebrate the land of his birth. His score was well received by the critics, but the libretto received some harsh reviews. Alexander Woollcott wrote: "Mr Blossom (have ) gathered his material and atmosphere by reading for quite half an hour in some public library."〔
