Congrats Mezzoid

Boosey and Hawkes in the US is supposed to be the Faber Music
Distributor. They won't stock the score anymore - I know I used it
two years ago - and while I just can't bear to part with my
score :-( you can try a couple of things

1) Talk to the Faber Music people in London directly that is where I
ordered it and they still will print copies as far as I know

2) Contact the opera dept. at University of Arkansas at Fayetteville -
Sarah Caldwell runs it - and see if they have a few laying around

3) University of Colorado at Boulder did it a few years ago - Dr.
Dennis Jackson is in charge - and they might have some

3) Blair School of Music at Vanderbilt University is doing it this
spring - Dr. Gayle Shay runs their program - and as far as I
understand they are using the Porter translation - maybe they found a
few extras

Good luck - it is a great translation to have in your personal
library
