THE D'OYLY CARTE OPERA COMPANY

Bartle McCarthy (1890)

Bartle McCarthy (or Macarthy) was Francesco when D'Oyly Carte's New York Gondoliers Company opened at New York's Park Theatre on January 7, 1890. The production was not a success, and when it was remounted at Palmer's Theatre in February, McCarthy had been relegated to the chorus where he remained for the balance of the run.
