“Tony Pastor's Opera House, 201 Bowery, the most fashionable part of the East end, is carrying everything before it in the way of amusements in that section of the city. Tony’s company are witty, gay, dashing, brilliant and talented, and the entire rôle of Ethiopian melodies is, in their hands, like molten wax, so easily is it moulded to suit the tastes of the public. The ‘Magic Flute’ is a gem in its way, and entirely eclipses the humor of the Ravels in the same pantomime. Marietta Zanfretta, the accomplished tight rope dancer, is attracting crowds. Tony Pastor has in the Bowery what the ‘San Fran’ boys have on Broadway, the full and entire swing.”
