The Princess of the Circus (original title in German: ”Die Zirkusprinzessin”) is an operetta in three acts composed by Emmerich Kálmán to a libretto by Julius Brammer and Alfred Grünwald, which premiered on March 26, 1926, at the Theater an der Wien in Vienna.
The action of the operetta revolves around the mysterious character "Mister X", whose true identity is unknown to anyone, as he always wears a mask. In reality, he is Prince Fedja Palinski who was expelled and disinherited by his uncle for falling in love with his uncle's future wife, the beautiful and young Parisian princess Fedora. After Fedora Palinska became a widow, she went to Paris, and Prince Fedja Palinski enters the world of circus, becoming the mysterious Mister X and the main attraction of the shows.
Following an intrigue with a happy ending, Mister X and Princess Fedora reunite and stay together. Part of these events takes place in the wonderful and colorful world of the circus.
