Announcement: New York Clipper, 18 April 1863, 3.
“We miss the delightful vocalism that was the feature of the Niblo version, and likewise, the great dancing of the corps de ballet, only one song being introduced into the Bowery play – well sung, however, by Miss Denham – and but ordinary dance. . . . The spectacle was received with such immense favor last week, that the manager announces it for repetition during the current week.”

Review: New York Clipper, 25 April 1863, 11.
“The grand spectacle of Satanas held the stage at the New Bowery a portion of last week, and benefits filled up the other nights, Mr. Nunan having a very fine house for his night.”
