He partnered with English producers, including Seymour Hicks, with whom he produced a string of London hits prior to 1910, including Quality Street, The Admirable Crichton, The Catch of the Season, The Beauty of Bath, and A Waltz Dream. Many of his London successes also enjoyed runs in New York. Frohman produced over 700 shows. At the height of his career, he died in the 1915 sinking of the RMS Lusitania.
