“And Mr. Tissington must be advised that he is not in a circus, and must reduce to pianissimo passages the fortissimos which often caused the dialogue to be inaudible yesterday. He would do well, also, to dispense with the co-operation of the wind instruments when spoken words are to be accompanied by the orchestra; but we cannot expect a complete reform at once.” Complete cast listing.
