The Duke of Urbino has a passion for ladies. Caramello, barber to the Duke of Urbino and disguised as a gondolier, plans to take the beautiful Barbara to his master, but she has another assignation and sends in her place the fisher-girl Annina – Caramello’s girlfriend! While Annina is perfectly happy to be given to the Duke, Caramello realizes his mistake and does his best to keep Annina and his master apart.

1 6 The Beloved Vagabond Adrian Ross , Dudley Glass (composer), 1927 single work musical theatre

Musical.

Inspired by W. J. Locke's 1906 novel and the 1908 stage adaptation (produced at His Majesty's Theatre, London by Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree), Dudley Glass wrote the score for this musical version and commissioned Englishman Adrian Ross to write the libretto.

The impassioned story is told in retrospect by the aged Paragot, a pious man who once loved a beautiful but faithless English lady. Paragot bears himself through the many loveless years waiting for Joanna's eyes to be opened, only to find what he desired on his own doorstep when Blanquette, who has herself waited the long years, opens his eyes to her love.
