Every Good Boy Deserves Favour is a stage play by Tom Stoppard with music by André Previn. It was first performed in 1977. The play criticises the Soviet practice of treating political dissidence as a form of mental illness. Its title derives from the popular mnemonic used by music students to remember the notes on the lines of the treble clef. The cast comprises six actors, but also a full orchestra, which not only provides music throughout the play but also forms an essential part of the action. A chamber-orchestra version also exists.

  • Ogni bravo ragazzo merita un favore (Every Good Boy Deserves Favour) è un'opera teatrale del drammaturgo britannico Tom Stoppard, portata al debutto a Londra nel 1977. Il dramma esplora il modo in cui nella Russia sovietica la dissidenza politica venisse considerata alla stregua di una malattia mentale e curata come tale. Il titolo originale in inglese è un trucco mnemonico usato dagli studenti di musica anglofoni per memorizzare la chiave di sol ("Every Good Boy Deserves Favour"). La pièce prevede un cast di sei attori ma anche la presenza di un'orchestra, che svolge un ruolo integrale nello svolgimento della trama. (it)
