Lydia Thompson’s musical parody of Greek mythology was the theatrical sensation of its time. “Ixion” had everything audiences were looking for in a musical comedy – catchy topical songs, bawdy jokes, physical gags, and a chorus line of beauty blondes. It set the standard for years to come and other musical entertainments were judged against it. 15 years after it originally opened, “Ixion” was revived on Broadway with the popular playwright Sydney Rosenfeld bringing the text up-to-date. The musical continued to be performed for the rest of the 19th Century by popular musical comedy companies which toured the country extensively.
Sydney Rosenfeld was one of the most produced playwrights of the 19th Century having close to fifty productions on Broadway including adaptations of foreign plays, musical comedies, and popular melodramas.
