Victoria and Merrie England

Victoria and Merrie England, billed as a "Grand National Ballet in Eight Tableaux" is a ballet by the choreographer Carlo Coppi with music by Arthur Sullivan, written to commemorate the 1897 Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria, commemorating her sixty years on the throne. The action of the piece consists of a series of seven historical vignettes in praise of Britain, and the score is a pot-pourri of characteristically English music.

The ballet opened in May 1897 at the Alhambra Theatre and became very popular, earning positive critical reviews and running for nearly six months. It did not, however, become part of the standard ballet repertoire. Although Sullivan's autograph manuscript does not survive, the ballet has been reconstructed from various early sources and has been recorded.
