19th-century Austrian Actresses
The 19th (nineteenth) century began on 1 January 1801 ( MDCCCI), and ended on 31 December 1900 ( MCM). The 19th century was the ninth century of the 2nd millennium. The 19th century was characterized by vast social upheaval. Slavery was abolished in much of Europe and the Americas. The First Industrial Revolution, though it began in the late 18th century, expanding beyond its British homeland for the first time during this century, particularly remaking the economies and societies of the Low Countries, the Rhineland, Northern Italy, and the Northeastern United States. A few decades later, the Second Industrial Revolution led to ever more massive urbanization and much higher levels of productivity, profit, and prosperity, a pattern that continued into the 20th century. The Islamic gunpowder empires fell into decline and European imperialism brought much of South Asia, Southeast Asia, and almost all of Africa under colonial rule. It was also marked by the collapse of the lar ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Anselma (play)
''Anselma'', also known as ''The Princess Andrea'', is a play in six acts. It is an 1885 English-language adaptation of Victorien Sardou's 1873 French-language play ''Andréa'' which was created by Leander Richardson for the Austrian actress Antonie Janisch (1848-1920), known on the stage as Madame Janisch. The play became a source of contention in the Judiciary of New York with several legal battles between the producers of ''Anselma'' and the actress Agnes Ethel arguing over the rights to Sardou's play.

Ethel had previously obtained the rights for an earlier English-language stage adaptation of the play which had bee ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Madison Square Theatre
''The Madison Square Theatre'' was a Broadway theatre in Manhattan, on the south side of 24th Street between Sixth Avenue and Broadway (which intersects Fifth Avenue near that point.) It was built in 1863, operated as a theater from 1865 to 1908, and demolished in 1908 to make way for an office building. The Madison Square Theatre was the scene of important developments in stage technology, theatre design, and theatrical tour management. For about half its history it had other names including the Fifth Avenue Theatre, Daly’s Fifth Avenue Theatre, Hoyt’s Madison Square Theatre, and Hoyt’s Theatre. History Merchant and real estate magnate Amos R. Eno leased land next to his Fifth Avenue Hotel in 1862 to James Fisk Jr., who built an after-hours gold trading exchange during the U.S. Civil War. The “ regular stock exchange” found the competition disruptive and soon shut down the operation."Another Disaster.: Total Destruction of the Fifth-Avenue Theatre by Fire," ''The Ne ...
