AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A lengthy and favourable review of the previous night's performance of Richard the Third. Mr Anderson's portrayal of Richard was excellent and showed a deep understanding of the complexities of character. The supporting actors were adequate, but showed no outstanding features.

  • Theatre lovers will have the chance to see the tragedian, Mr James Anderson, perform as Othello this evening. Mr Anderson has won acclaim in England and has been performing in Melbourne. Although he attracted some 'narrow-minded and one-sided' criticism, the writer is sure he will please Ballarat audiences, 'who generally patronise true merit'.
  • Bachelder's diorama has become so popular that many patrons were unable to gain admittance on Saturday night. This evening's entire proceeds are being donated to the hospital and the two asylums. Mr Bachelder is giving a number of performances especially for children and children from the Benevolent and Orphan Asylum will be admitted free to his Wednesday afternoon performance.
