Le Diable boiteux is a ballet in three acts by Jean Coralli, with music by Casimir Gide, which premiered on 1 June 1836 at the Paris Opera. The main roles were played by Fanny Elssler, Joseph Mazilier, Amélie Legallois, Pauline Leroux and Jean-Baptiste Barrez. Loosely inspired by the novel of the same name by Lesage, this ballet was the first great success of Coralli who had, until then, mainly re-edited the ballets of other authors. The cachucha performed by Fanny Elssler was a sensational success. One spin-off of this widely celebrated ballet was a “revue” (mélange of music, singing, and ballet) in a production of Le Diable boiteux created on 18 December 1866 at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris. In this case Le Diable boiteux was called a “grande revue parisienne en quatre et trente tableaux” (grand Parisian revue in 34 scenes). Here’s the complete title and description of the composers, choreographer, scene and costume designers in French: “Le diable boiteux, grande revue parisienne en quatre et trente tableaux, de MM. Clairville, Ernest Blum et Alexandre Flan. Musique nouvelle de M. Victor Chéri. – Ballets de M. Honoré. – Décors de MM. Fromont, Daran, Poisson, Robecchi et Philastre. – Machines de M.
