Abstract: The Girl in the Taxi is the English version adaptation by Frederick Fenn and Arthur Wimperis of the operetta 'Die keusche Susanne', with music by Jean Gilbert. The German original had a libretto by Georg Okonkowski. The musical's first performance was at the Lyric Theatre in London on 5 September 1912.
The story begins with a man and a woman, both married, who flag the same taxi and then decide to share it, as they have the same restaurant destination. Various naughty supper rendezvous, and much hiding under tables or behind screens, ensue.
