“At the Fifth Avenue Theatre Leffingwell gave, last week, his inimitable burlesque of Ristori’s Medea, with Mrs. H. Watkins as the cruel Jason. We have already described this ludicrous arrangement of Euripides’ great creation, and can only say that both of the above mentioned artists faithfully represented the merry god, Momus, during the past week.”
