John Clark, better known as Signor Brocolini (September 26, 1841 – June 7, 1906), was an Irish-born American operatic singer and actor remembered for creating the role of the Pirate King in the original New York City production of ''The Pirates of Penzance'' by Gilbert and Sullivan, in 1879-80. First a journalist, then a baseball player, Brocolini began his singing career in the 1870s and performed into the 1890s, taking his stage name from the borough of Brooklyn, New York,〔At the time, Brooklyn was still an independent city, only later becoming part of New York City.〕 where he grew up, and Italianizing it. ==Life and career== The son of native Scots John and Lillian Clark, Brocolini was born John Clark in County Cork, Ireland. Fleeing the Great Potato Famine, the family moved to settle in Brooklyn, New York, about 1853.〔Morris (2007), p. 47〕 Young Brocolini became an avid baseball fan and player. By his teens, he was also learning the printing trade from his father.〔Morris (2007), p. 49〕
