The Sacrament of Judas Delights at English's Theatre
A two act bill at English's featured Louis Tiercelin's The Sacrament of Judas as curtain-raiser and Conan Doyle inspired The Adventures of Gerard as the main piece. James ONeill delivered a restrained yet dignified priestly performance as Citizen Bernet supported by Creston Clarke as the Count of Kerven and Selene Johnson in a key role. The audience, small due to bad weather, nuanced the curtain-raiser's success with a disappointing long play.

Review of The Adventures of Gerard theater production
The critic finds the Briga dier Gerard adaptation by Conan Doyle and Presbrey lacks coherence after a promising first act. O Neill shines early but falters later, while Clarke and Selene Johnson underplay Napoleon and the countess. Breese shows occasional height, but overall cast and make-up fail to evoke historic Napoleon. hopes linger for another three act drama from O Neill to better engage theatergoers.
