Summary
[edit]DescriptionAbbey's Humpty Dumpty.tif |
English: Advertisement poster for an American pantomime company called Humpty Dumpty, organized by Abbey & Hickey. The pantomime was a British art form with two parts: a highly stylized harlequinade that involved clown characters derived from older Italian forms, and a slapstick, zany musical theatre component based on a fairy tale or folk tale. A December 1879 advertisement for this show bragged that it involved a cast of 125 people. This was an important show, as it introduced Henry Eugene Abbey's Spanish Students to America, as part of the show, which helped spur Americans to learn the mandolin (a largely unknown instrument in America before that point). |
