'Girls of the Golden West' is a California opera, telling the story of the Gold Rush not through familiar time-worn myth, but in the words and deeds of real people: in the words of Mark Twain, 'the strangest population, the finest population... who ever trooped down the startled solitudes of an unpeopled land'.
