Brief: “’Le Petit Faust’ has proved such a success at Kelly & Leon’s Minstrels that the management have no idea of withdrawing it for some time to come.”
"Messrs. Kelly & Leon have added to the potent attractions of ‘Le Petit Faust’ the extraordinary drollery of ‘Lischen and Fritzchen,’ which was brought out by them for the first time on Monday last, and was admirably performed to an excellent house. This piece will doubtless run for some time to come.”
“‘The Ladder of Fame’ is a very laughable sketch now running at Kelly & Leon’s Minstrels, and in which Sam Purdy climbs the various rounds of the ladder with considerable energy and perseverance under difficulties. ‘Litzchen and Frischen’ has also been produced, in which Kelly and Leon show to advantage. ‘La Petit Faust’ is continued.”
