The Boatswain's Mate is an opera in one act (but in two parts) written by British composer and suffragette Ethel Smyth in 1913–14 set to her own libretto, which was based on a story of the same name by W. W. Jacobs. It was Smyth's fourth opera, and it is sometimes claimed as a feminist opera. The piece centers around a humorous battle of the sexes featuring a feisty and resourceful heroine who outwits her scheming suitor (but perhaps falls for his accomplice—this is left to the speculation of the reader or audience).

  • The Boatswain's Mate is an opera in one act (but in two parts) written by British composer and suffragette Ethel Smyth in 1913–14 set to her own libretto, which was based on a story of the same name by W. W. Jacobs. It was Smyth's fourth opera, and it is sometimes claimed as a feminist opera. The piece centers around a humorous battle of the sexes featuring a feisty and resourceful heroine who outwits her scheming suitor (but perhaps falls for his accomplice—this is left to the speculation of the reader or audience). In summary, the opera's score has been described by Stephen Banfield as "interspersed with spoken dialogue in part 1, [it] is symphonically constructed around folksongs and Smyth's own March of the Women; its pacing and orchestration are adroitly managed."

  • The Boatswain's Mate (Båtsmannens vän) är en opera i en akt med musik av Ethel Smyth och libretto av tonsättaren efter en historia av William Wymark Jacobs. Det var Smyths fjärde opera och handlingen rör sig kring ett humoristisk könskrig mellan en energisk och rådig hjältinna som överlistar sin beräknande uppvaktare (men måhända faller för hans medbrottsling - det är upp till publiken att avgöra). har beskrivit musiken som "varvad med talad dialog i del 1, den är symfoniskt uppbyggd kring folksånger och Smyths egen The March of the Women; dess rytm och orkestrering är skickligt utförd."
