These in turn are recognised as the genesis of 'the musical' that is such an important part of commercial theatre today. It was the success of these operas that paved the way for D'Oyly Carte's other achievements, building his own theatres and establishing a chain of luxury hotels that included The Savoy Hotel, Claridge's and The Berkeley.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBehind these achievements, however, lay stories of family unhappiness, strife and tragedy.
