Belle Lurette is a three-act opéra comique with music by Jacques Offenbach and words by Ernest Blum, Edouard Blau and Raoul Toché. It was first performed at the Théâtre de la Renaissance, Paris, on 30 October 1880. The composer died before the orchestration of the score was finished, and Léo Delibes completed it.
The opera depicts the romantic affairs of a beautiful Parisian laundress, known as "Belle Lurette",[n 1] and the entanglements of those around her.
