Book Description
Author Theodore A. Borrillo brings to life the passionate tale of one of the acclaimed actresses of the early stage at the historic Elitch Theatre in Denver, Colorado and in other theaters across America. Maude Fealy's story takes you from her childhood days as the daughter of an accomplished actress to her life of acting, writing and directing plays. She appeared with William Gillette in America and in England. The legendary Sir Henry Irving selected her as his leading lady to replace Ellen Terry, the leading Shakespearean actress of her day in England. Maude Fealy's poise and authority as an actress brought her to perform on many stages. She appeared on the Broadway stage and as a stock star in St. Louis, Memphis, Newark, Buffalo, Salt Lake City, Grand Rapids, San Francisco and large Canadian cities, such as Winnipeg and Toronto. The Thanhouser Film Company, one of the early motion picture studios, founded in 1909, engaged her talent to play leading roles in films. There is much to be said about Maude Fealy. Join the author in exploring the fascinating fragments of her worthwhile life.
