For the first time, Bob Hart, the Ethiopian comedian, who returns from Havana. “In rehearsal the prize Farce entitled FITZBOODLE’S FIRST AND LAST VOYAGE ON BOARD THE YACHT GYPSUM.”
“[A]t this house we find a performance different from all other places in the city, combining a little of all sorts in one great bill.
