Image WSGyounger.jpg thumb right center W.S. Gilbert in about 1870 center No Cards is a musical piece in one act for four characters, written by W. S. Gilbert , with music composed and arranged by Thomas German Reed . It was first produced at the Royal Gallery of Illustration , Lower Regent Street, London, under the management of German Reed, opening on 29 March 1869 and closing on 21 November 1869. The work is a domestic farce of mistaken identities and inept disguises, as two men desperately compete to marry a wealthy young lady. One is young and poor, and the other is a rich miser. Each disguises himself as her guardian. No Cards was the first of Gilbert s six pieces for the Gallery of Illustration. It was also Gilbert s first libretto with prose dialogue and the first stage work for which he wrote lyrics to be set to music, rather than lyrics to pre existing music. No Cards was played on a double bill with Arthur Sullivan and F. C. Burnand s Cox and Box , although Gilbert and Sullivan did not meet until later that year. After a successful 139 performances, the bill toured the British provinces. ref name Kidd Kidd, Patrick. http entertainment.timesonline.co.uk tol arts and entertainment music article6916651.ece Revival of Gilbert s No Cards dates from a time before Sullivan , The Times ...
