The Irish-American actor, singer, dancer, playwright, lyricist and theater producer Edward Harrigan (1844-1911) formed one of the most celebrated theatrical partnerships of the 19th century with Tony Hart. Harrigan is known as one of the founding fathers of modern American musical theater whose productions of multi-act plays incorporated physical comedy with singing and dancing. Harrigan & Hart's breakthrough hit came with "The Mulligan Guard", a lampoon of an Irish neighborhood militia with music by his future father-in-law David Braham. The sequel "The Mulligan Guard Picnic" settled itself on Broadway in 1878 and integrated more of a story line. Having separated from Hart in the meantime, by 1886 Harrigan's comedic play "The Leather Patch", also with songs by David Braham, opened at the Park Theatre in New York City on February 15, 1886. The late 19th century American stage actress Marie Burroughs (1866-1926) played prominent roles in many plays. The American theatrical manager Albert Marshman Palmer (1838-1905) was well known in the theatrical world as A.M. Palmer. The renowned French opera-bouffe actress and singer Marie Aimee (1852-1887) gained international fame in the 1870's, touring the United States, Mexico and Cuba with her own company. Known for her wit and charm, she performed in Jacques Offenbach's Operettas. Her career was brief as she passed away at the age of 35. The English-born American actress Annie Robe (1866-1922) came to prominence in the last decades of the Victorian era.
