Review: New York Herald, 11 December 1866, 7.

“The Budworths, keeping pace with the exacting demands of the public, have made sweeping alterations in their programme, and present this week to their patrons almost an entirely new bill. This endeavor to please a critical public by frequently offering new attractions and inducements cannot fail to reap its reward, and judging from the large and fashionable audience that last night filled their neat hall, it is but fair to presume that they are already fully appreciated, and the new attractions will undoubtedly crowd the house during the remainder of the week.”
