Go-Bang
''Go-Bang'' is an English musical comedy with words by Adrian Ross and music by F. Osmond Carr.
The piece was produced by Fred Harris and opened at the Trafalgar Square Theatre on 10 March 1894. It ran for 159 performances. The show starred Harry Grattan, George Grossmith, Jr., Arthur Playfair, Jessie Bond, and dancer Letty Lind. The American child prodigy "Baby Costello" danced in the interval between acts. Whereas Ross generally acted as lyricist only, in this case he created the book as well as the lyrics.
''Go-Bang'' had a lot of competition in London in 1894, which saw the openings of ''The Chieftain'' by Arthur Sullivan and F. C. Burnand, ''His Excellency'' by Carr and W. S. Gilbert, ''The Lady Slavey'' by Gustave Kerker and George Dance, a revival of ''Little Jack Sheppard'' by Meyer Lutz and H. P. Stephens at the Gaiety Theatre, ''Mirette'' by André Messager and Ross, and ''The Shop Girl'', an extremely successful musical comedy by H. J. W. Dam, Ivan Caryll, Lionel Monckton and Ross.
==Synopsis==
Dam Row, the Boojam-elect of the Asian country of Go-Bang, visits England to learn Western manners, escorted by Sir Reddan Tapeleigh. There, he finds that he is not Boojam after all. He falls in love with a dancer after seeing her performance, although he generally finds it difficult to grasp Western ways. He returns to Go-Bang as prime minister to the new chief, a humble greengrocer (previously Sir Reddan's footman), who is to be formally installed as Boojam at the palace in Go Bang. The parents of various girls scheme to marry their daughters to the Boojam. He must stand under the Golden Umbrella, where all decrees are announced, but finds himself married by mistake to three girls in as many minutes. Fortunately, the marriage decree is revoked. Sir Reddan's secretary loves Helen, Sir Reddan's daughter, and she helps him to find documents to prove that he is the rightful Boojam.
