The King Who Raved was created by Ramos Carrión, Vital Aza and Chapí in 1891; it is a milestone in the history of lyric theatre and on the stage of the Teatro de la Zarzuela. For few kings, not even the most popular kings of history, nor those most loved by their people, will have been so acclaimed, so applauded, or so hoorayed as our King in this kingdom of La Zarzuela.
