AbstractHistoryArchive Description

An advertisement for the Royal Victoria Theatre production of James Robinson Planche's The Loan of a Lover and [Charles Webb's] Belphegor, the Mountebank; or, Woman's Constancy on 10 August 1868.

Notes

  • Two plays bear the title Belphegor, the Mounteback, both adapted from Adolphe D'Ennery's Aillasse. One is written by Charles Webb and the other by B. N. Webster. It seems likely that the play performed in Sydney in August 1868 is Charles Webb's drama as it was that work that was presented earlier in the year at the Royal Victoria Hall, Brisbane.
