Logan was born in Philadelphia and established her career in the south, playing in Savannah and other cities, though she also ventured to Albany and Boston. The performance began with an orchestral overture, followed by Shakespeare’s play, other songs including "Comin’ thro’ the Rye," and concluded with a musical farce "Loan of a Lover."
