The first act occurs in the Café Momus, the second in Musetta’s house, the third in Marcel’s garret, and the fourth in the studio of Rudolph. Unlike the Puccini work, the tenor part is given to Marcel.

Balfe (1808) and was produced at Drury Lane, London, in 1843. The story tells of the kidnapping of Arline, daughter of the Count Arnheim, by Devilshoof, a gypsy chief. Thaddeus, a young noble banished from his country, joins the gypsy band and falls in love with Arline. While the gypsies are attending a fair at Presburg, Arline, now a beautiful maiden of 17, incurring the displeasure of the Gypsy ‘Queen, is accused of stealing and is taken before Count Arnheim, who recognizes his daughter by a scar onherarm. She is restored to her rank, but continues to meet Thaddeus secretly, until the lovers are denounced to the Count by the jealous Queen. The Count is at first indignant, but the pleading of his daughter, and the knowledge that Thaddeus is of noble birth, reconciles him to the union of the lovers.
