===Traditions begin=== In 1901, with ''The King of Pomeru'', Triangle ventured for the first time to New York, and the next year the club ventured as far as [[Pittsburgh]]. After the 1901 New York performance, Franklin B. Morse (1895) proposed a meeting to organize Triangle alumni, who he believed could help promote the club, build its reputation, arrange the annual tour, collect materials and memorabilia, and generally socialize among themselves. In June of that year, thirty-seven alumni met in Princeton, and the Triangle Board of Trustees was established. After 1900, the Triangle became increasingly established. Printed copies of the scripts began appearing (the first was ''The Man From Where,'' performed 1903β04).{{Citation needed|date=January 2024}} Performing off campus and on became the norm, which led faculty to vett texts and performances were vetted before the students left campus with their show.

It was part of ''The Mummy Monarch'', but soon became a standard element of Triangle shows.
