Agnes Gertrude Mitchell appeared on tour as Edith in The Pirates of Penzance with D'Oyly Carte's Third American Pirates Company from March through July 1880. She then played Isabel with the Boston Ideal Company, appearing at New York's Booth Theatre in September.

By October she was touring Great Britain as Isabel in the first provincial production of Pirates with Mr. D'Oyly Carte's newly-formed "B" Company. In March 1881 the Company was redesignated as "C" Company. That month Miss Mitchell moved up to Edith again, but she left the Company and the tour in May 1881 or shortly thereafter.
