Ship Abor at the Grand Opera House A Mixed Review
A readably critical assessment of Ship Abor, billed as a nautical farce opera. The libretto by H. Grattan Donnelly is panned as gaseous and trashy while Fred Miller conducts for fairly good orchestration. Performers like Wallace McCreery, Jesse Jenkins, and T J Cronin receive mixed commendations amid costume and scenery bravado.
