Quite an Adventure is a one-act comic opera by Edward Solomon with a libretto by Frank Desprez. The farcical plot concerns a house-guest who mistakes his hostess's husband for an intruder.
The opera's first run in London was under the management of Michael Gunn, but the piece was played by the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company in the 1880s and 1890s as a curtain raiser to full-length Savoy operas, both on tour and later in London.

Famous quotes containing the word adventure:
“A house means a family house, a place specially meant for putting children and men in so as to restrict their waywardness and distract them from the longing for adventure and escape they’ve had since time began.”
—Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)
