Review: New York Herald, 20 March 1867.

“Amusements. Charley White’s Combination Troupe. A programme replete with an exhaustive variety of pleasing and popular songs, jokes, dances, burlesques and ballet is nightly offered by the management of this truly protean company. A crowded house testified last evening to the hearty appreciation by the mirth loving public of the unique and popular bill provided for their entertainment. Besides an array of Ethipoian interludes and Terpischorean solos, the pleasing ballet divertissement of the Triumph of Love, the local burlesque entitled the Streets of New York, and the comic pantomime of the Schoolboy’s Frolics are the prominent attractions of the present week.”
