 According to Bolossy Kiralfy, “The American public not only became educated of our large dance extravaganzas, they demanded them in all musical productions.” 

When they travelled to New York City in May 1869, the Kiralfy Brothers may already have envisioned how to produce their ideas of spectacle on stage.For four years, the family continued to tour as dancers, until eventually being contracted by Niblo's Garden, just after the theatre’s immense success with "The Black Crook".Their first foray into the production side of theatre came in 1871, with the pantomime "Humpty Dumpty" at the Olympic, in which the “Kiralfy Troupe,” as they had come to be known, were performing.
