“The anniversary of the ‘Black Crook’ takes place at Niblo’s on Wednesday evening, the 18th inst. On this evening the three hundred and sixty-fifth performance – including Matinees – will take place.”
“The latest novelty in the presentation of the ‘Black Crook’ is a ‘mechanical donkey,’ a new and original character, who is very appropriately assigned to play with Greppo in the last act. The invention is close enough to reality, and seemed to afford much amusement to the immense crowd of spectators last evening.”
