Abstract

Abstract Fromental Hal é vy’s La juive, famously one of the most spectacular and crowd pleasing productions of Parisian grand opéra, was criticized for being more like circus than opéra, dubbed an ‘opéra-Franconi’, after the owners of the Cirque-Olympique. Yet it proved particularly popular with audiences at the Opera, increasingly familiar with, and appreciative of, the delights of suppos edly less high-brow theatres.
