Drama and Sporting Notes From London Theatres
Between the Puritans act a new scene introduced by Cerito and St Leon drew a large audience at the theatre of HE Mas EstTy. Haymarket saw the American minister and family admire Risley and his infant sons, while Princess's Theatre debuted The Alchemist's Daughter though it failed to win public favor. Lyceum screened a parade of noble visitors including dukes and earls, and Taglioni graced Paris's Académie Royale in Sylphide. Astley's Theatre celebrated eastern exploits with naval and Chinese war spectacles, and a convivial Tax Caton Club feast at Willis's Rooms featured toasts to the Queen and royal family. Tattersall's racing notes closed with odds on Derby and St Leger, and Cobweb's fortunes in 1845.
