Date 7 May 1915 Time 14:10 – 14:28 Location North Atlantic Ocean, near Old Head of Kinsale, Ireland Cause Torpedoed by German U-boat. Outcome • 1,198 of the 1,959 people aboard killed, leaving 761 survivors. • Turned international opinion against Germany and led towards American entry into World War I. The sinking of the Cunard ocean liner RMS Lusitania occurred on 7 May 1915 during the First World War, as Germany waged submarine warfare against Britain. The ship was identified and torpedoed by the German U-boat U-20 and sank in 18 minutes. The vessel went down 11 miles (18 km) off the Old Head of Kinsale,[1] Ireland, killing 1,198 of the 1,959 people aboard, leaving 761 survivors. The sinking turned public opinion in many countries against Germany, contributed to the American entry into World War I and became an iconic symbol in military recruiting campaigns of why the war was being fought.[2] Lusitania had the misfortune to fall victim to torpedo attack relatively early in the First World War, before tactics for evading submarines were properly implemented or understood. The contemporary investigations both in the UK and the United States into the precise causes of the ship's loss were obstructed by the needs of wartime secrecy and a propaganda campaign to ensure all blame fell upon Germany. Argument over whether the ship was a legitimate military target raged back and forth throughout the war as both sides made misleading claims about the ship.

  • LONGACRE THEATER, 220-228 West 48Th Street , Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission December 8, 1987; Designation List 197 LP-1348 LONGACRE THEATER, 220-228 West 48th Street , Manhattan. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1019, Lot 50. Built 1912-13; architect, Henry B. Herts. On June 14 and 15, 1982 , the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a pub 1 ic hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Longacre Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No.44). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty witnesses spoke or had statements read into the record in favor of designation. One witness spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Longacre Theater survives today as one of the historic playhouses that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Constructed in 1912-13, the Longacre was built to house the productions of Broadway producer and baseball magnate Harry H. Frazee . Designed for Frazee by Henry Herts, prominent theater architect, the Longacre is among the earliest surviving Broadway theaters, and has an exceptionally handsome facade. Like most Broadway playhouses built before World War I, the Longacre was designed by a leading theater architect to house the offices and theatrical productions of its owner. Though known as a baseball magnate, and at one time the owner of the Boston Red Sox, Frazee was also an influential Broadway producer who, besides building the Longacre theater, at one time also owned two other Broadway houses (the Harris and the Lyric).

By LAWRENCE REAMER. The Dress of Sportsmen AFTER all, the present age is less exacting than it might seem. The public of Vienna, which late in the eighteenth century was called upon to admire Mozart's music to "Cosi fan Tutti," one of the notable triumphs of the season at the Metropolitan Opera House, listened In delight to the measures of the composer, but was frankly scornful of the text which Lorenzo da Ponte had supplied. Learned commentators have told of the various efforts to eliminate this libretto which excited the Impresarios of every country and nearly every period of operatic history since Vienna heard the work. Yet unsatisfactory as it may have. been to the critics, Da Ponte's play suited the music better than any other. So it has survived down to our own day. Joseph II. is said to have commanded the Viennese librettist to use the story, which is also said to have been the event of an actual flirtation of that day. Nowadays the sophisticated sneer at the naive view of a librettist who started out with the hypothesis that two women would fall to recognize their betrothed when they return to court them.

  • Finding Neverland, It Appears That at Least Part of His Wish Has Come True
    CHARLES FROHMAN 0. CHARLES FROHMAN - Story Preface 1. J.M. BARRIE - EARLY LIFE 2. MARY ANSELL BARRIE 3. SYLVIA LLEWELYN DAVIES 4. PETER PAN IS BORN 5. OPENING NIGHT 6. TRAGEDY STRIKES 7. BARRIE AND THE BOYS 8. CHARLES FROHMAN 9. SCENES FROM LIFE 10. THE REST OF THE STORY This poster, advertising “Peter Pan” and crediting Charles Frohman as the producer, is from the second production of the play and dates back to 1906-1907. Created by Peter O'Toole Lithograph Company; online via Pinterest. Barrie became friends with the American who produced his plays: Charles Frohman. Together with his two brothers (Daniel and Gustave), Frohman was part of the New York theatrical scene. Some folks called him the "Beaming Buddha of Broadway." Frohman launched his career (note his name in the lefthand corner of the poster) by producing Bronson Howard's Shenandoah. In 1893, he built the Empire Theater (scroll to the bottom) with Al Hayman and soon was working with the leading dramatists of the day: Oscar Wilde, Somerset Maugham and Arthur Wing Pinero. It was Frohman who first produced Peter Pan at the Duke of York's Theatre in London. Although he was part of the reviled Theatrical Syndicate, whose handful of members controlled the best stage productions and nationwide bookings (to the detriment of independent theater owners), Frohman made his deals with a handshake. He launched the long and successful career of Jerome Kern who composed Broadway tunes for British productions before they opened in America. And, it is said, Frohman was fair to his stars - like Maude Adams who played the role of Peter Pan between 1905 and 1915 (and was the inspiration for Jane Seymour's character Elise McKenna in the movie Somewhere in Time).

  • Famous Theater Producer from Sandusky Died When the Lusitania Sank 5/5/2017 5:00 Tom Jackson, Sandusky Register
    Famous theater producer from Sandusky died when the Lusitania sank 5/5/2017 5:00 Tom Jackson, Sandusky Register A historical marker on Poplar Street, near the intersection of West Jefferson Street and Lawrence Street, gives the location of Charles Frohman's birthplace. -- Courtesy Erie County Historical Society SANDUSKY — The sinking of the ocean liner Lusitania on May 7, 1915, by a German submarine during World War I killed 1,198 people. Among the dead: Famous theater producer Charles Frohman, a Sandusky native who produced hundreds of shows in New York, London and Boston. When he died, he was a world-famous figure. After he died, funeral services were held for Frohman in New York City. But according to “Charles Frohman: Manager and Man,” a 1916 biography of Frohman, services also were held in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Tacoma, Providence and London. Many of the memorials were organized by the actors Frohman had made into stars, such as Maude Adams, John Drew and Billie Burke. (You may not recognize Burke’s name, but you’ve seen her. She was Glinda, the “Good Witch of the North,” in “The Wizard of Oz.”) The Sandusky Register ran page one articles about the tragedy 102 years ago today, in the May 8, 1915 issue, under the headline, "ONE THOUSAND THOUGHT LOST WITH LUSITANIA." (See the replica page in today's newspaper.) Frohman was born on July 15, 1856, in Sandusky, into a Jewish family, the youngest of three brothers (Gustave and Daniel also were in the theater business, and Daniel also was a movie producer).
