1759 m. Prancūzijoje pasirodė vieno žymiausių XVIII a. mąstytojų, satyriko ir filosofo Voltaire’o apsakymas Kandidas, arba Optimizmas. Slapta išspausdintas, dėl savo politinės satyros, religinio piktžodžiavimo ir socialinės kritikos jis tuoj pat buvo uždraustas. Tačiau ši juokingai liūdna, kupina ironijos filosofinė apysaka tik populiarėjo. O 1956 m. tapo Leonardo Bernsteino (1918–1990), pasak The New York Times, „vieno genialiausių, talentingiausių ir labiausiai vertinamų muzikų per visą Amerikos istoriją“, operetės Kandidas pagrindu. Premjera įvyko Niujorko Broadway teatre, spektaklis, neprarandantis nei satyriškai perteikto temos aktualumo, nei muzikos žavesio, statomas daugelyje pasaulio teatrų. 2012 m. ši operetė pirmą kartą skambėjo Lietuvoje, LNOBT.

Dabartinį pastatymą parengė publikai iš elegantiškų Manon ir Kapulečiai ir Montekiai pastatymų pažįstamas prancūzų režisierius Vincent’as Boussard’as su ta pačia kūrėjų komanda bei muzikos vadovas Sesto Quatrini.
