ONE OF ONLY 1500 COPIES PRINTED IN FRANCE AND SIGNED BY THE ILLUSTRATOR. This especially tall and handsome production for the Limited Editions Club was printed in Lyon by Count Gioseppe Govone on the presses of Audin and Cie. Mariette Ludis' large and dramatic lithography are a perfect complement to the story. THE BEGGAR'S OPERA is a bit of an oddity in theatrical history. Written in 1728 it is one of the very few of the once-thriving genre of ballad operas to still remain popular today. In fact, success came VERY slowly for John Gay's play. When it was first performed in 1728 it ran for only 62 shows. Nearly 200 years later when it was revived by Sir Nigel Playfair at the Lyric in Hammersmith, it ran for three and a half years! Success may have come slowly, but once it did it came fantastically.
