La somptueuse opérette Fioretta se déroulait à Venise au cours du XVIIIe siècle et a été une rare excursion dans le monde du "book musical" pour le producteur Earl Carroll, plus connus pour ses Earl Carroll Vanities (10 Vanities au total, de 1923 à 1940, ainsi que deux Sketch Books en 1929 et 1935). Earl Carroll a seulement occasionnellement tâtonné dans le "book musical" (dans divers rôles de parolier, compositeur, librettiste et interprète. Il a été associé à quatre "book musicals" pendant les années 1914-1918 et, en 1933, il a été co-librettiste et producteur du musical Murder at the Vanities).
