Excerpt from The Savoy Opera and the Savoyards To the Savoy opera and its merry men playgoers are indebted for many an agreeable hour and innumerable laughter-moving quips. I have thought, therefore, that some record of this pleasant home of song and humour would be welcome, and have gathered together everything about the plays, authors, and performers that is likely to be interesting. This will be found a propos, as the Savoy opera might be considered almost a new form of entertainment, which the public has accepted cordially.
