Encyclopedia: List of operettas (208 words)
Operetta (literally, little opera) is a performance art-form similar to opera, though it generally deals with less serious topics.
Operetta is often considered less "serious" than opera, although this has more to do with the generally comic plots than with the caliber of the music.
Operetta grew out of the French opéra comique around the middle of the 19th century, to satisfy a need for short, light works in contrast to the full-length entertainment of the increasingly serious opéra comique.
