The original New York production ( 1918 ) did not catch on, only running for 37 performances.

However, Asche also directed the first Australian production for J. C. Williamson in Australia in 1917, followed by another production in 1923.

This became as successful as the London production, with soprano Gladys Moncrieff becoming famous as Teresa.

The show had major London revivals in 1921, 1930, 1942 ( starring Sylvia Cecil at the London Coliseum ) and 1972 in an Emile Littler production at the Palace Theatre in the West End, and at the Finborough Theatre, London, in December 2006 with a West End cast including Anita Louise Combe, as well as numerous other professional productions elsewhere.
