“Orpheus in the Underworld” is an opéra bouffe with the music by Jacques Offenbach and the libretto by Ludovic Halévy and Hector Crémieux. Due to the French regulation at the time, Offenbach was not allowed to write longer operettas before and “Orpheus in the Underworld" was therefore his first full-length operetta. Already at the premiere the operetta was a complete success and Naopléon III. Himself, applauded Offenbach for his work.Originally the work was composed with two acts, but sixteen years after the first premiere in 1858, the operetta was extended to four acts.
