Later it became a first- class producing house in which many of the famous actors and actresses of the present day made their debut. It winds up its career as a burlesque theater. As a variety or vaudeville house it opened with a program including the Martinette-Ravel troupe of pantomi- mists, the team of Harrigan and Hart and Jefferson De Angelis. When A. M. Palmer| who after- Co, famous ‘was placed ward made Palmer Stoc! in America and England, in' charge of the theter,, he began staging a series of London revivals with Miss Agnes Ethel, once leading lady for Augustine Daly, in the lead. Others in the company were Kate | Claxten, Clara Morris, Eliza Weather- by, who afierward became Mrs. Nat Goodwin; Mestayer. James O'Neil, later of Monte Cristo” fame; J. H. Stoddard, ‘Tark Smith, Charles R. Thorne, Jr., Maude Harrison and Agnes Booth came later.

Mackay, Marie Wilkins, Charles Cog! lan and’ Richard Mansfield. ' The most famous success of the Union Square wo= t» “T'wo Orphans" translated from the French and hawk- ed about for $1,600 until Palmer read it. The play ran 180 nights and was the sensation of the theatrical season. Kate Claxton, who played ‘“Louise, the blind girl,” bought it outright and played it for 20 years. Other famous plays produced were “The Banker's Daughter,” “My Part- ner,” “The Celebrated Case,” “Ark- wright’s Wife,” and “Brighton.” The successes were followed by stock pro- Auctions in which Frank Mayo, Min- nie Palmer, Nelly Howard, Owen awe-it. Kate Denin Wilson, Charles L. Harris, Lawrence d'Orsay and Augustus Cook and others played. ‘The first performance of “The Mikado” in New York was given in the Union Square-with Roland Reed and Alice Harrison in the title roles. In 1885, James M. Hill took the theater and brought out a new and upheard of star, Margaret Mather and put on “Romeo and Juliet.” During his management, Chauncey Oleott, ob- tained his first engagement in opera.
