The Theatres, &C.
THE THEATRES , & c .
Criterion . —Following on fche line of business that Mr . T . G . Warren haa hitherto been so successful with , this gentleman has once more exerted himself , and has written an original farcical comedy in three acts , produced afc this theatre lasfc Thursday week , entitled "My Bonny Boy . " Liko' -Nita's First , " this is founded
entirely on misrepresentations , fche result creating laughter from beginning to end of the play . Such a piece as " My Bonny Boy " it is seldom fche lot of a matineer to witness , and those present seemed to cafcoh afc fche opportunity for enjoyment . In fact , tho piece only wants a littlo alteration , and ifc then ought to " catch on " in some
evening bill . A short onthne of the piece will suffice to show how the interest is sustained . Benjamin Boulter , Esq ., is expecting a man down fco tnne his pianoforte , and on the arrival of his son—who haa been away from home for fifteen years—that gentleman is taken for the tuner , while fche latter is taken for the son . Ifc happens that
both these gentlemen ' s names are George , and so readily does the tuner appreciate the mistake that no suspicion is aroused . Dnring the time George Boulter has been absent from home , he has married , unknown fco his father , bufc being under previous engagement to his cousin Hetty , is doubtful as to fche reception his wife will receive .
Ho therefore employs the tuner , who he takes for Hetty ' s lover , to break the news ; but on arrival he is abused by his father ; this he takes as an indication that he is nofc forgiven . During the two succeeding acts the misunderstandings are well kept up , bufc afc the end of the third the mistake is found out , with the result that all
ends happily . The acting throughout the piece was capital , the part of fche tuner being admirably portrayed by Mr . George Giddens . This gentleman was exceedingly funny throughout the piece , and wifch the help of Mr . William Blakeley as Benjamin Boulter oansed roars of laughter . These two worked well together , and certainly a
great amount of the success of the piece was due to their admirable acting . Mr . J . H . Darnley , as the son , gave a capital rendering of his part , while Miss F . Paget was excellent as Mrs . Boulter jun . Miss Annie Hnghes was bright and winning as Hetty , but
Mr . J . C . Bnckstone as Harry Hoppleton , who afterwards marries Hetty , was rather dull in fche love scenes . The other characters were welt sustained by Messrs . W . Staveley , J . R . Sherman , Mrs . Bickerstaff , and Miss Scotti . At the conclusion Mr . Warren received an enthusiastic call before the curtain ; this he richly deserved .
G-aiety . —The Comic opera ' Dorothy , firsfc brought onfc here , still maintains its success . Considerable additions have been made to the musical and comical features since its production . The chief parts strengthened are those of Miss Florence Dysart , Mr . Haydn Coffin , and Mr . A . Williams . Mr . Coffin sings with even more than
his usual freshness and vigour ; his additional song is well received , and merits the encores given it . Mr . Williams' comic business has been considerably and advantageously increased . His bye-play is loudly applauded . Altogether , of this pretty opera ifc may be said , " all goes merry aa a marriage bell . "
G-rand . —Miss Nelly Farren and Mr . Fred Leslie have paid a return visit to fchis theatre during the week , and have once more treated the North Londoners to the amusing burlesque " Littlo Jack Sboppard . " So much has already been written about this piece that it only remains for us fco sav ali fche old business is
retained , while in some parts the piece has been considerably strengthened . Miss Nelly Farren is as funny as ever , while Mr . Fred Leslie is never afc a loss fco find enjoyment ; for his audience . The songs , " Jonathan Wild , " " Jack's Alive ' 0 , " " You musn ' t believe all you hear , " " Dear Heart , " "Tho Farewell , " and the " Polyglot , "
are still given with considerable success , ancl in fact nothing is lack , ing fco cause amusemenfc throughout the piece . Mr . Georgo Stone ( Bluoskin ) , Mr . Georgo Honey ( Sir Roland Trenchard ) , Mr . Edward W . Colman ( Kneebono ) , Mr . W . Guise ( Abraham Mendoz ) , Miss Delaporfce ( Thames Darrein , Miss Birdie Irving ( Winifred Wood ) ,
Miss Laura Clynds ( Edgeworth Be ^ s ) , and Miss Sylvia Grey ( Polly Stanmore ) all work with a will , aud wo can only advise our readers to see " Little Jack Sheppard " before it is too kite . After to-night ( Saturday ) , the Grand will remain closed until Christmas Eve , when Mr . Charles Wilmofc will present his fourth grand pantomime—the subject of which will be " Robinson Crusoe . "
