Opera originated in the late Renaissance period, specifically around the late 16th century, as a form of musical theater that combined vocal and instrumental music with dramatic storytelling. It evolved from earlier traditions of music and drama, particularly through the efforts of composers and theorists in Italy, such as Jacopo Peri and Claudio Monteverdi. The genre blossomed during the Baroque period, ultimately leading to the rich operatic traditions that developed in the following centuries.

In what time period is the opera 'The Mighty Casey' set?

"The Mighty Casey" does not have a set time period. The notes just say: "A Time not too long ago." The opera is based on the poem "Casey At The Bat" by Ernest Thayer and was written in 1888, so that should give you some idea of the period.
