ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
Quote from Wikipedia:
La mascotte (The Mascot) is a three-act opéra comique with music by Edmond Audran and words by Alfred Duru and Henri Chivot. The story concerns a farm girl who is a “mascotte”: someone with the mystic power to bring good luck to all around her, so long as she remains a virgin.
The opera opened at the Théâtre des Bouffes Parisiens, Paris, on 28 December 1880, and had an initial run of 301 performances. Productions followed in other continental European countries, the Americas, Britain and Australia. The title of the piece introduced the word “mascotte” into standard French usage, “mascot” into English, and other variants of it into several more languages.
