BRUISED WINGS / COSETTE
1918 / 1919
Bruised Wings is a play by Edward Clark. It was originally produced by a newly-formed production company Edward Clark and Barney Gerard, Inc. It starred Fania Marinoff.
The play tells the story of Cosette, a French streetwalker who saves a young man from suicide, nursing him back to health. Romance ensues, until the young man’s parents intervene, forcing them apart. After two years, the young love birds with their bruised wings are finally reunited.
Although the premiere was originally slated for June in Atlantic City, it was moved up, and opened at Nixon’s Apollo Theatre on May 13, 1918.
It played a split week with the Lyric Theatre in Allentown PA. This was the play’s final performances.
In October 1918, Clark brought his newest play to Broadway, Not With My Money, which closed after 11 performances. Not With My Money might have been what Barney Gerard said to Clark about Bruised Wings. Gerard released all interest in the play, which was picked up by John Cort.
If at first you don’t succeed...Cort re-titled the play Cosette and premiered the new version in Atlantic City, back at the Apollo where Bruised Wings began. It opened on January 16, 1919, 8 months after Bruised Wings closed. This time, Josephine Victor played the streetwalker, and Otto Kruger was the young man.
Once again, it was a split week, this time with the Academy of Music in Baltimore MD.
Cort promoted the play in New York newspapers. The play stayed in Baltimore for the month of January, then once again disappeared from the landscape. This time, for good.
