    Barry Sullivan (christened Thomas Barry Sullivan; 5 July 1821 – 3 May 1891)
    " ... Sullivan was five feet nine inches (175 cm) tall[2] and had a wiry, slight figure which allowed him to play younger parts when he was middle-aged.[1] For a long period Sullivan was one of the finest actors of his period, though at times inclined to err on the robust side.[2] In Melbourne Sullivan's death resulted in lengthy obituaries; he was remembered as an actor and manager of 'more than ordinary talent, combined with considerable force of character, great tenacity of purpose, untiring industry, and a dogged application to the business of his profession'."

    There was no end to his talent and versatility. An anecdote recounted in the Tatler on Wednesday 21 September 1927:
    Mr. Barry Sullivan, one of our great actors of old days, was appearing as Hamlet at Portsmouth. The audience consisted mainly of sailors, who were out for a good time. When Barry Sullivan was about to commence the famous soliloquy "To be or not to be," the sailors demanded that he should dance the hornpipe for their amusement. Barry tried to talk them down, but one of them shouted "Look here, Barry Are you going to dance as my pals wish or am I to come down on the stage and make yer do it?" So the sedate Hamlet danced a hornpipe and then continued the soliloquy.
