My Romance (musical)

This show originally started out with music by Denes Agay and lyrics by Rowland Leigh.

It was revived with a new score by the famous Sigmund Romberg, and with Lawrence Brooks replacing Charles Fredericks.

Marguerita Cavallini, and Lawrence Brooks as Bishop Armstrong,[3] “My Romance” told the story of a minister who fell in love with an opera diva.

Edward Brewster Sheldon, who died in 1946 at the age of 60, wrote this sentimental drama in 1913 and it made the actress Doris Keane a memorable figure in American theatre.

[4] Brooks Atkinson of The New York Times called it “pretentious fiddle-faddle,” while John Chapman of the New York Daily News said that the “lovely” Jeffreys made for an “enchanting operetta heroine” who sang Romberg's songs “as though they meant something.” [5]
