Fenian’s Oath is a “grand revival.”

Review: New York Herald, 13 March 1867.

“Musical. Charley White’s Combination Troupe. The revival of the Fenian’s Oath, drew a large and appreciative audience last evening at Mechanics’ Hall, and judging from the delight with which it was received, it will probably occupy the boards for at least another week or two. The piece abounds in green flags, red fire, dancing fairies, rascally red coats and Fenian patriots, and is upon the whole a very laughable, improbable and ludicrous drama. The comic interlude of The Siamese Twins, with Charley White and George Edeson as the twins, provoked the most uproarious laughter.”
