When Italy found itself in various theatrical crises, Walter Mocchi created a transoceanic theatrical empire, using his business acumen to craft viable solutions. While his efforts were most visible in the sphere of opera, he played an extremely significant role in the promotion and circulation of popular forms of musical theatre (such as operetta) and staged world premieres of works by Italian superstars in Argentina (such as Mascagni's Isabeau), thus offering an early example of what Stephen Greenblatt calls 'cultural mobility'. 650 0 $a Theater $z South America $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Theater $z Italy $x History $y 20th century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008112851 650 0 $a Opera $z South America $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Opera $z Italy $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Operetta $z South America $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Operetta $z Italy $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Opera. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1046145 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1046145 650 7 $a Operetta. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1046423 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1046423 650 7 $a Theater. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1149217 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1149217 651 7 $a Italy. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204565 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204565 651 7 $a South America. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1244515 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1244515 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 830 0 $a Cambridge elements. $p Elements in musical theatre. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2021014115 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317014839.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8607D660323411EC8B1165C359ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
