- A triple threat actor-writer-singer, Henry E. Dixey became a major Broadway star in the play (written by longtime friend and associate, Edward E. Rice), "Adonis" in which portrayed a marble statue that comes to life. With his ripped physique, the production became a sensation and ran for a then-record 603 performances at the Bijou Theatre. Dixey would go on to star in the road production for years in addition to starring or producing 33 individual Broadway productions. He would only appear in a very small number of films that were shot in New York and retire at age 67 in mid-1926. Shortly after his 84th birthday he was killed by a city bus in Atlantic City.
