Cast of House that Jack built. “G.L.F. Overture, composed and arranged by A. Tyte. . . .The House That Jack Built will be produced with all the effects of its first representation, which crowded the house for several months.”

Announcement: New York Clipper, 14 May 1864, 38.
House that Jack built, “with all the novel effects, tricks, changes, fun and frolic which gave it a profitable run when first produced at the Old Bowery a few months ago.  What Forrest is in tragedy, G.L. Fox is in pantomime.”
