John McCullough had played the role of Virginius as a member of John A. Ellsler's stock company - a small dramatic school - at the Academy of Music. He later revisited the role at the Euclid Avenue Opera House in 1878 and went on to establish himself as a well known actor. Effie Ellsler, Clara Morris, James O'Neil, James Lewis, Mrs. G. H. Gilbert, Lawrence Barrett, and Edwin Booth also began their march to stardom after appearances on the Academy of Music and Opera House stages.
