Toronto Operetta Theatre’s 2024-2025 season opens with a new production of Sigmund Romberg’s popular hit musical, THE STUDENT PRINCE.
Romberg’s many musicals were filled with one great tune after another, but none was so packed with hits as THE STUDENT PRINCE. The students’ ‘Drinking Song’, Prince Karl Franz’s ‘Serenade, duets like ‘Deep in my Heart’ and ‘Golden Days’ are just a few of the immortal melodies that flowed from his pen.
Dorothy Donnelly’s book and lyrics are based on Meyer- Förster’s play Olde Heidelberg and tells a bittersweet tale of young love, innocence and the call of duty in the fictitious German principality of Karlsberg.
