JAMES, DAVID (1839-1893)

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 143 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: INV-JED
JAMES, DAVID (1839-1893) , English actor, was born in London, his real name being Belasco. He began his stage career at an early age, and after 1863 gradually made his way in humorous parts. His creation, in 1875, of the part of Perkyn Middlewick in Our Boys made him famous as a comedian, the performance obtaining for the piece a then unprecedented run from the 16th of January 1875 till the 18th of April 1879. In 1885 he had another notable success as Blueskin in Little Jack Sheppard at the Gaiety Theatre, his principal associates being Fred
Leslie
  and Nellie
Farren
 . His song in this
burlesque
 , " Botany Bay," became widely popular. In the part of John Dory in Wild Oats he again made a
great
  hit at the Criterion Theatre in 1886; and among his other most successful impersonations were Simon
Ingot
  in
David
 
Garrick
 , Tweedie in Tweedie's Rights,
Macclesfield
  in The Guv'nor, and Eccles in Caste. His unctuous humour and unfailing spirits made him a
great
  favourite with the public. He died on the 2nd of October 1893
