Renowned French danseuse Mme. Francisquy Hutin introduced ballet to the US with a performance of The Deserter staged at the Bowery Theatre in New York, NY.  A minor scandal erupted when the ladies in the lower boxes left the theatre upon viewing the light and scanty attire of Mme. Hutin and her troupe.
