It Happened in Nordland (‘04) formulating some observations regarding Herbert’s Fred L. Hamlin/Julian Mitchell/Lew Fields - producers creative teams. Glen MacDonough - librettist M. Witmark & Sons - publishers Julian Mitchell - stage director Producers put the whole production together and are Max Hirschfield - music director therefore the cog that both drives each operetta wheel as Lew Fields Theatre well as creates the wheel in the first place. Charles C. Dillingham is the clear winner in this category with four productions under his supervision beginning with Babette (‘03), Miss Dolly Dollars (‘05), Mlle Modiste (‘05) and 3 News From VHSource, LLC Vol 10 October 2017 The Red Mill (‘06). Glen MacDonough comes in second with 4 works as Please note not only is he librettist: The Gold Bug (1896), Babes In Toyland (‘03), responsible for the most It Happened in Nordland (‘05) and Wonderland (aka but also some very Alice) (‘05). Henry Blossom comes on board very late significant operettas. with Mlle Modiste (‘05) followed immediately by The Second place goes to The Red Mill (‘06), a small but major contribution which will Bostonians with 3 bode very well for future years to come.

Series later Viceroy (‘00); as well as in this newsletter. to Julian Mitchell who was either a member of The stage director is responsible for the movement of the producing team or actors and in these early years also the dancers. The clear sole producer for 3 leader here is Julian Mitchell (the same fellow who works: Babes in Toyland produced) with six directing projects for Herbert between Charles C. Dillingham (‘03), It Happened in 1897 and 1905: The Idol’s Eye (‘97), The Fortune Teller Nordland (‘05) and (‘98), The Singing Girl (‘99), Babes In Toyland (‘03), It Wonderland (‘05). The Alice Neilsen Opera Company Happened In Nordland (‘04), and Wonderland (aka and Frank Daniels are tied with 2 productions. However, Alice) (‘05). Note: it always helps immensely if you are Frank Daniels has the distinction of commissioning, also the Producer. Tied for second are A.M. Holbrook producing, and starring in both The Idol’s Eye (1897) with 3: Cyrano de Bergerac (‘99), Miss Dolly Dollars and The Ameer (‘99), while The Alice Neilsen Opera (‘05) and Dream City and The Magic Knight (‘06); and Company produced The Fortune Teller (‘98) and The Fred G. Latham with 3: Babette (‘03), Mlle Modiste Singing Girl (‘99) as starring vehicles for Alice Neilsen (‘05) and The Red Mill (‘06). While Mr. Mitchell’s before going out of business when she gave up the output is sterling, one certainly cannot sniff at Mr. theatre. All other producers were pretty much one and Latham’s three classic Herbert works. Everyone else is done. The Bostonians did give Herbert his first ever a one and out, with the exception of William H. production, but it’s interesting to note that it took them 3 Fitzgerald, who worked basically for The Bostonians for years to do a second and six years before they undertook both The Serenade (1897) and The Viceroy (‘00). the third one. The last important person on the creative wheel is the The primary member of any creative team other than the music director, responsible for preparing the singers as producer and the composer is the librettist. The clear well as the orchestra. While Herbert often conducted leader here is Harry B. Smith who amassed 8 important first performances both out-of-town as well as productions as librettist/lyricist: The Wizard of the Nile Broadway openings, someone had to prepare everyone (1895), The Idol’s Eye (‘97), The Serenade (‘97), The musically and then conduct every performance. There is Fortune Teller (‘98), Cyrano de Bergerac (‘99 writing no clear winner here. This is a bit surprising as one would as Stuart Reed), The Viceroy (‘00), Babette (‘03), and surmise that Herbert would 1) consider this position most Miss Dolly Dollars (‘05). As if that were not quite important, 2) have a hand in hiring and 3) be fairly loyal enough, Smith served as lyricist on The Singing Girl to a music director.

Studley with 3 output. No matter what you may think about his work, he operettas each. Hirschfield was on the podium for Babes was the go-to-guy much of the time.

Everyone else either guided two productions: German music publisher whose selection would have Palma, Steindorff, Gottschalk, and Lund; or simply been a very logical choice for Herbert, given his long served one and out: Kerker, McGlie, De Novellis and residence and education in Austria and Germany prior to Styx. arriving in America. He simply chose the familiar as he began his operetta composing career. He used E. This gives one a clearer picture of the creative teams that Schuberth from Prince Ananias (1894) through The surrounded Herbert for his first 18 productions. Are there Serenade (‘97). It’s also safe to assume that the main conclusions that can be drawn? It seems clear that offices of E.

    Guide to the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, 1875-1972 Brooklyn Public Library Grand Army Plaza Brooklyn, NY 11238 Contact: Brooklyn Collection Phone: 718.230.2762 Fax: 718.857.2245 Email: [email protected] www.brooklynpubliclibrary.org Processed by Lisa DeBoer, Lisa Castrogiovanni and Lisa Studier. Finding aid created in 2006. Revised and expanded in 2008. Copyright © 2006-2008 Brooklyn Public Library. All rights reserved. Descriptive Summary Creator: Various Title: Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection Date Span: 1875-1972 Abstract: The Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection consists of 800 playbills and programs for motion pictures, musical concerts, high school commencement exercises, lectures, photoplays, vaudeville, and burlesque, as well as the more traditional offerings such as plays and operas, all from Brooklyn theaters. Quantity: 2.25 linear feet Location: Brooklyn Collection Map Room, cabinet 11 Repository: Brooklyn Public Library – Brooklyn Collection Reference Code: BC0071 Scope and Content Note The 800 items in the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, which occupies 2.25 cubic feet, easily refute the stereotypes of Brooklyn as provincial and insular. From the late 1880s until the 1940s, the period covered by the bulk of these materials, the performing arts thrived in Brooklyn and were available to residents right at their doorsteps. At one point, there were over 200 theaters in Brooklyn. Frequented by the rich, the middle class and the working poor, they enjoyed mass popularity. With materials from 115 different theaters, the collection spans almost a century, from 1875 to 1972. The highest concentration is in the years 1890 to 1909, with approximately 450 items.
