"Sweethearts" and "The Zoo"

Presented by Arts Barn at Arts Barn

Victorian Lyric Opera Company presents two Valentine-themed one-act operettas that are sure to delight the romantic in all of us!

Act I is "Sweethearts," a comic play billed as a "dramatic contrast" in two short acts that tells a sentimental and ironic story of the differing recollections of a man and a woman about their last meeting together before being separated and reunited after 30 years.

Act II, "The Zoo," is a farcical story that concerns two pairs of lovers. First, a nobleman who goes to the zoo to woo the girl who sells snacks there. He tries to impress her by buying & eating all of the food. The other couple includes a young chemist who believes that he has poisoned his beloved by mixing up her father's prescription with peppermint that he had meant for her.
