{{work}}

'''''Babes in Toyland''''' began as a 1903 operetta by popular American composer Victor Herbert in which [[Fairy Tale]] and [[Mother Goose]] characters acted out a fairly standard Babes-In-The-Wood plot in [[Living Toys|Toyland]], where [[Evil Uncle]] Barnaby has attempted to do away with his niece and nephew Jane and Alan -- and incidentally to steal Alan's lady love, Contrary Mary. The operetta featured some of Herbert's most famous musical pieces, such as "Castle In Spain," "Go To Sleep, Slumber Deep," "I Can't Do The Sum," the "March of the Toys," and "Toyland."
