- Common Knowledge: Offenbach is almost always associated with classical music, despite the fact that his works are technically early musicals and are considered as such in Europe.
- Best Known For The Fan Service: Orpheus in the Underworld is best known for Act 2, Scene 2 where the lovely ladies in showgirl skirts dance a can-can across the stage. It helps that the tune they dance to not only is the best-known of the entire operetta and is also the one that for most people immediately springs to mind whenever they hear the word "can-can".
