Rural Felicity is an operatic comedy in two acts written by John Baldwin Buckstone in 1834. The play is set in a small, rural village and follows the lives of several characters as they navigate love, marriage, and societal expectations. The main plot centers around the young couple, Charles and Lucy, who are in love but facing opposition from Lucy's father, who wants her to marry a wealthy but unscrupulous suitor. Alongside this central story, there are several subplots involving other characters, including a group of gossipy villagers, a pair of bickering spouses, and a young woman who disguises herself as a man to pursue her love interest. The play is full of witty dialogue, humorous situations, and lively musical numbers, making it a delightful example of 19th-century operatic comedy. Overall, Rural Felicity is a charming and entertaining work that captures the spirit of its time and provides a window into the world of rural England in the early 1800s.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
