About The Princess Chic
The Princess Chic is an operetta in three acts with music by Julian Edwards and a libretto by Kirke La Shelle. Set in 15th century France, the work tells the tale of a fictional romance between Princess Chic of Normandy and Charles the Bold, the Duke of Burgundy during the time when the duke is in conflict with King Louis XI. While the operetta was not a success with New York critics and its Broadway run in 1900 was short, the work was ultimately profitable for its creators and had a lengthy tour that lasted ten years. The work is notable for forwarding the career of popular operetta soprano Christie MacDonald who portrayed the title role as her first leading part on the stage. Both musical selections from the operetta and a complete vocal score of the work were published by M. Witmark & Sons.
