AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Among the subjects covered in 'Our Letter Home' is a round-up of recent entertainments. The Australasian considers the 'two principal successes during the month [of January] in the way of amusements have been the readings of Mr. Montgomery at St. George's-hall, and the Japanese performances at the Princess's'. The 'pecuniary results' of the former are said to be 'utterly beyond anything of the kind that ever occurred before in this colony'. In Ballarat, for instance, Montgomery gave three readings and received £200.
The column also notes performances and management arrangements at the Royal Victoria Theatre and the Duke of Edinburgh (previously the Haymarket) Theatre.
