William Collier (1910)

In 1910 he appeared at the Elitch Theatre in Denver, Colorado, while his adopted son, William Collier Jr., was recovering from scarlet fever and then typhoid. His son recovered and was able to join his father and mother, actress Paula Marr, in a production of The Patriot.

[Borrillo, Theodore A., (2012). Denver’s historic Elitch Theatre : a nostalgic journey (a history of its times). pp. 94–95.]

As far as his sense of humor, he “once opened The Patriot, one of his own plays, on December 30. On January 2 he advertised with some degree of truthfulness: ‘Second Year in New York.’”

[Hay, Peter (1990). Broadway anecdotes. Oxford university press. p. 198]
