son of a See also:farmer. He made his first See also:appearance on the See also:stage at See also:Halifax in 1864, and then played in the provinces alone and with his wife, See also:Caroline See also:Heath, in See also:East Lynne. After managerial experiences at See also:Leeds and elsewhere, in 1879 he took the management of the old See also:Court See also:theatre, where he introduced Madame See also:Modjeska to London, in an See also:adaptation of See also:Schiller's Maria See also:Stuart, Adrienne See also:Lecouvreur, La See also:Dame aux camelias and other plays. It was not till 1881, however, wheu he took the Princess's theatre, that he became well known to the public in the emotional See also:drama, The See also:Lights o' London, by G. R. See also:Sims.

Jones, perhaps the most successful See also:melodrama ever staged, produced in 1882 with himself as Wilfred See also:Denver, his See also:brother See also:George (an excellent comedian) in the See also:cast, and E. S. See also:Willard (b. 1853) as the " Spider,"—this being the part in which Mr Willard, afterwards a well-known actor both in See also:America and See also:England, first came to the front. See also:Barrett played this part for three See also:hundred nights without a break, and repeated his London success in W. G. See also:Wills's Claudian which followed. In 1884 he appeared in See also:Hamlet, but soon returned to melodrama, and though he had occasional seasons in London he acted chiefly in the provinces. In 1886 he made his first visit to America, repeated in later years, and in 1898 he visited See also:Australia. During these years the London stage was coming under new influences, and See also:- WILSON, ALEXANDER (1766-1813)

Wilson Barrett's See also:vogue in melodrama had waned. But in 1895 he struck a new vein of success with his drama of religious emotion, The Sign of the See also:Cross, which crowded his theatre with audiences largely composed of See also:people outside the See also:ordinary circle of playgoers. He attempted to repeat the success with other plays of a religious type, but not with equal effect, and several of his later plays were failures.
He died on the 22nd of See also:July 1904. Wilson Barrett was a See also:sterling actor of a robust type and striking physique, not remarkable for intellectual finesse, but excelling in melodrama, and very successful as the central figure on his own stage.
