Arizona Lady Tickets

Arizona Lady is a captivating two-act operetta that transports audiences to 1920s Arizona, weaving a tale around Lona Farrell and her prize racehorse, Arizona Lady. Composed by Emmerich Kalman, with posthumous completion by his son Charles Kalman and librettos by Alfred Grünwald and Gustav Beer, this work blends traditional operetta charm with a distinctly American frontier setting. The world premiere broadcast aired on January 1, 1954 (Munich), with the stage premiere following on February 14, 1954 (Bern). The American premiere occurred in July 2010 at Chicago Folks Operetta in Stage 773, in English translation by Gerald Frantzen and Hersh Glagov. While performances have utilized German/English translations and occasional English subtitles, the piece remains a gem of the Kalman catalog that resonates with both classic operetta fans and new listeners. This page provides a concise biography of the composer and librettists, a snapshot of the work’s discography highlights, and notes on upcoming tour activity where applicable.
