Abbey, Henry E. ( Edwin or Eugene) (1846–96), American theatre manager who, after experience in Akron (his birthplace), Buffalo, and Boston, was encouraged by Charlotte Crabtree to take over the management of the Park Theatre 2, New York, in 1876. He was instrumental in attracting to New York many Continental stars, among them Irving and Ellen Terry, who with their London company opened Abbey's own theatre (see KNICKER-BOCKER THEATRE) in New York in 1893. Abbey was one of the first managers to provide good plays and companies outside New York, and his early death was a great loss to the burgeoning America-wide theatre.
