An operetta is a short, light-hearted musical drama that typically includes spoken dialogue, songs, and dances. It originated in the mid-19th century, particularly associated with composers like Jacques Offenbach and later Gilbert and Sullivan. Operettas often feature humorous plots, romantic themes, and satirical elements, making them more accessible and entertaining compared to traditional Opera. They played a significant role in the development of musical theater.
