Abstract

During the 19th and early 20th centuries, before Canada had developed its own indigenous theatrical tradition, a substantial number of Canadian-born or -raised performers enriched the theatres of the United States and England: most of these were women. This article focuses on those female performers born during the 19 th century who pursued successful careers in the United States. One purpose of the article is simply to call the roll of names that have never been gathered together before. Among its other aims is a consideration of these expatriate performers' attitudes toward Canada, and Canada's toward them. Durant le 19ieme siecles et le debut du 20ieme siecles, avant que le Canada ait developpe sa tradition indigene theâtrale, un nombre important d'artistes Canadiens - nes ou eleves - avaient enrichie les theâtres des Etats Unis et ceux de l'Angleterre: la plupart des ces artistes etaient des femmes. Cet article est concentre sur ces femmes artistes nees durant le 19ieme siecle qui ont poursuivie avec succes des carrieres theâtrales aux Etats Unis. Un but de cet article est tout simplement de faire l'appel des noms qui auparavant ne furent jamais assembles. Entre autre, le but de cet article est de bien considerer l'attitude de ces artistes expatriees envers le Canada, et celle du Canada envers elles.
