Review: New-York Daily Tribune, 22 December 1862, 2.
“The New Bowery . . . enjoys the present distinction of offering the best pantomimic performance – in the London style – that has been seen in New York for many years. It is entitled ‘Harlequin Jack Sheppard.’ . . . The personifications of Clown, Harlequin, Pantaloon, and Sprite, are as complete as need be.”
