The report was in general terms only; both pieces were cleverly and effectively sustained”, During the interval “a most effective Irish song was sung and the orchestra under the veteran melodist Sir George Smart gave unqualified satisfaction* (NCH 31.1.1852). 23.2.1852 (Mon) T. MORTON: “A Roland for an Oliver" (1819) T: Farce (2 acts) "No!" by W.H. MURRAY or F. REYNOLDS T: Farce (1 act) C: Amateurs F: Music Th: Theatre Royal (A) N: Second performance of the season R: Tonight there was a "numerous attendance of the beau monde, but not so much as on the previous occasion". A Roland for an Oliver was "an old established favourite and we need only say that the scenery was admirable, the ladies well dressed, the bride quite lovely and the whole went off amidst enthusiastic cheers and bursts of applause”. The other farce "No!" was "replete with fun and sly sarcasm on unequal matches between lovely young wives and gentlemen rather the worse for wear". Somewhat contradictorily the critic continued, "it decidedly exhibited much more spirit than its precursor and was hailed accordingly with more enthusiasm and good will". There was also “a solo on the pianoforte by a young lady, her first appearance, as we believe, on any stage. The rapidity of her fingering, the clearness of her touch and what is so frequently wanting with many performers, her musical emphasis, were striking. We hear that the young lady graduated at the Conservatoire at Paris and her style is characterised by that brilliancy and distinctness so marked in performances at that capital”. No more was heard of this pianist; as to her name and career we are left in the dark. Was she the wife of a local merchant or a touring artist? Or was the "lady" in this instance too, a “gentleman"?? (NCH 28.2.1852). 24.3.1852 (Mon) G. COLMAN Jr: "The Review" (1800) T: Musical farce (2 acts) R. AYTON: "The Rendezvous" (1818) T: Operetta (1 act). C: Amateurs F: Music Th: New Theatre Royal (A) N: Third performance of the season R: For the occasion a new drop scene, depicting the Bay of Naples, had been painted. Apart from the plays "a company of excellent jugglers amused the visitors, with a good display of surprising feats of sleight of hand". Possibly these were Chinese, for in the announcement (NCH 20.3.1852) it was stated that there are several parties endeavouring to obtain Native Conjurers for the next theatrical night". Of course the whole “went off with much eclat, the characters were well sustained and admirably dressed, the scenery as usual very good and the music first rate” (NCH 27.3.1852). ================================================================================ RASHKB Journal 皇家亞洲學會香港分會學刊 | RAS-1989 https://digitalrepository.lib.hku.hk/catalog/8336pm92h 242 High Life below Stairs: J.
