Synopsis of “THE MERRY WIDOW”

Anna Glavari, the young and pretty Pontevedrian widow of a banker who left her 20 million francs, is having her fling in Paris before settling down again. Baron Zeta, the Pontevedrian Ambassador in Paris, receives a despatch from his government advising him of the country’s impending bankruptcy and an urgent request that he persuade the widow to marry a Pontevedrian in order to ensure that her millions remain in the Fatherland. Zeta selects his attache, Count Danilo, as the candidate for the marriage.

He is ignorant of the fact that an unhappy previous affaire had taken place between the two when Anna was a poor farmer’s daughter. Anna accuses Danilo of only being interested in her money, to which he indignantly replies that she will never hear him use the words “I love you” to her. Anna takes this as a challenge and in her efforts to win over the Count, much confusion occurs, involving the affections of Zeta, his wife Valencienne and her would-be lover, Camille de Rosillon. Reconciliations are effected however, and all ends happily.

THE “WIDOW” WHO SET THE WORLD WALTZING

It would be difficult to think of an operetta that has had such a success and swept the world so completely as “The Merry Widow.” It has been translated into Chinese and Hindustani and there was the time when it was being performed in 400 European theatres in one evening.

Yet this popular lady could hardly have been more reticent in her debut.

The composer, Franz Lehar, was at the time a small-time band leader at an ice rink in Vienna. The director of Vienna’s famous Theater an der Wien,” knowing his abilities, invited him to write the music for a stage version of a book called “The Attache.”

Nobody thought much of the result. Yet when it opened, the immediate success of “The Merry Widow” filled the theatre for many years to come.

George Edwardes went to see it. He, too, was not impressed, but decided to put it on at Daly’s as a six-weeks stopgap.

Edwardes did not like the translation and he called in Basil Hood, but could not steel himself to tell the first author. So he invented a series of wiles to keep him away and it was a surprised and infuriated author who heard a completely different version on the first night. He brought an action and was awarded a handsome royalty.

Edwardes also did not dare tell the composer, Lehar, that Joseph Coyne, who was playing the hero, could not sing a note but was being coached to “talk” the words to the music.

The first time Lehar heard him sing was at the dress rehearsal. Lehar expostulated vigorously. There was even trouble over “the widow” herself.

Edwardes had signed up an Austrian actress, Mizzi Miller, without having ever seen her. When she eventually presented herself, it became clear that though she might have a very beautiful voice, the same could not be said about her figure. She was sent home, but she drew her salary all through the London run. Eventually, much against his will, he cast the fresh and graceful 21-year-old Lily Elsie.

Lehar said; “She is more like ze Merry Widow’s daughter than ze Merry Widow.” Lily herself was unhappy about it all and begged to be released.

But Edwardes wouldn’t hear of it – and Lily Elsie made a personal smash-hit while the operetta ran so long she had five successors in the part.

The highlight of the first night, June 8th, 1907, was the waltz scene.

When “The Merry Widow” eventually closed, after a run of more than two years, the last night was definitely more sensational than the first. The audience was bidding goodbye to an old friend. Fans had seen it literally dozens of times, one lady boasting a total of 112.

When the time came to celebrate “The Widow’s millionth European production, there was a special performance at her birthplace, the “Theater an der Wien.” The entire audience was composed of actresses who had played the title role. A strange celebration for a show that was very nearly never put on at all!

David Rossiter
PRODUCER

Making his third welcome return to Napier having produced since “Where’s Charley”:- Wanganui’s “Carousel” and the record breaking “Student Prince” in Palmerston North. Born in England and though having been in New Zealand only a short while, has built a reputation of not only bringing latest techniques to his productions but of presenting the original conception, as produced in London, without cut or addition.

Has had acting experience on the London stage in both musicals and straight plays, together with considerable broadcast and television appearances followed by extensive producing in the English provinces.

Leaves Napier to produce “Peter Pan” in Wanganui for the Christmas season.

Cedric White
MUSICAL DIRECTOR

Has directed the musical side of the Society for over 30 years. He was a member of the original “Kiwi” Concert Party and remained in England under a Government Bursary and passed through the Royal Academy of Music. He was a member of the Savoy Orchestra. He then moved to Paris and enrolled at the National Conservatoire and was in the Alhambra Theatre Orchestra.

On his return to New Zealand he toured with the J. C. Williamson organisation, but eventually settled in Napier where he is in practice as a public accountant.

Betty Gray
CHOREOGRAPHER

After Betty Gray’s great success with the choreography in “Where’s Charley” it is with very great pleasure she is welcomed back as choreographer and ballet mistress for “The Merry Widow”.

An Associate of the Royal Academy of Dancing, being the first in Hawke’s Bay to gain her Solo Seal Examination, the highest examination for a dancer, is also a graduate of the National Examination System of Dancing in Australia (Contemporary Dancing).

Betty Gray has danced leading roles in the ballets for the society’s productions of “Chu Chin Chow” and “Oklahoma” before touring throughout New Zealand with J. C. Williamson as a professional dancer.

Betty so impressed everyone with her friendliness and personality during “Where’s Charley” that twenty eight dancers applied to be in her ballets for “The Merry Widow” and this must be a near record for amateur operatic dancers. Betty has easily taken everything in her stride. We look forward to many more years of co-operation with her.
