“At Wood’s Museum the natural and other monstrosities are attracting a fair share of public patronage and attention. The dramatic entertainments at this establishment are of a high order, and a succession of brilliant stars are promised throughout the season. In the afternoon Miss Susan Galton, the young English prima donna, appears in English opera bouffe, and in the evening Miss Maggie Mitchell enacts the rôle of the innocent little Lorle in the drama of that name.”
“Miss Maggie Mitchell began the third week of her engagement at Wood’s Museum last night, and the success which has attended the production of ‘Lorle’ persuades her to continue the performance of that quiet German pastorale. The English Opera Bouffe troupe, led by Miss Galton, continue to make the afternoon performances at the new Museum attractive.”
