‘Mistress Nell’ Was Not a Success at the Start Husband of Henrietta Crosman Tells How the Great Star Fought the Theatrical Syndicate Years Ago.

part men* We played four weeks in Denver, and the last week we produced our prize play. Mistress Nell." It wasn’t a great success there but we never last faith in it. We managed to pav all our bills and salaries somehow. and returned to New York fiat broke. That was a pretty rotten summer in New York with no money Miss Crosman had quite a few’ stork offers for the following season, but we said no to all of them I was still determined to make a star of her and Mistress Nell" was the play I selected But how to do it? That was the question Those towns around Pittsburgh where we had fared so well in the spring would repeat if we could get there But how to get there? Finally. I decided to co to Pittsburgh and see if I could not raise some money I borrowed S2O from a newspaper friend, paid my fare to Pittsburgh with half of it. and left the rest with my wife for expenses If I didn't raise any money, it looked as though I might never get back But I made a deal with Harry Davis, manager of the Grand Opera House whereby he was to lend me SBOO which, if not repaid within a certain time. Miss Crosman was obliged to return and play in stock for him. So. I came back with money in my pocket With practically no scenery and a very cheap cast we played "Mistress Nell" in the towns around Pittsburgh again and were on easy street again. Then I got into the clutches of the Syndicate again and they booked me for a week in Toronto. But before Miss Crasman and the company reached there, trouble came The Syndicate told me they could give us no more time. We were to be left. cold. The explanation came a few days later when I read in the newspaper's that Klaw At Erlanger had bought Sweet Nell of Old Drurv" as a starring vehicle for Ada Rehan. So that was it. The principal character in both

Mistress Nell" and Sweet Nell of Old Drury” was the actress Nell Gwyn and the syndicate decided to clear the way for their own play. Two Nell Gwvn plays would be one too many I suppose Erlanger thought we would be forced to close, but actually he made us do exactly what he did not want us to do. and what we might not have had the courage to do if we had not been forced into it. It was New York now or never for us and I decided on "now " And right here my associating with Henry B Sire, who owned the Bijou theater, stood me in good stead Agreeing to give him the first $2,500 of receipts. I finally succeeded in getting him to say "yes." but I had to follow him for days and nights with the contract and a bottle of ink and a pen before I could get him to sign on the dotted line. By that time Miss Crosman was playing Toronto A New York engagement meant new scenery, costumes and an entire new cast. I engaged the new players in New York and shipped them to Miss Crasman. who rehearsed them and put them in the cast. Meantime I built the scenery and costumes. a a a BIG VARIETY BILL OPENS AT CIRCLE The circle today starts its seventeenth anniversary show by presenting a seven act variety bill on the stage and Douglas Fairbanks
