| Description |
Charles Warner's Royal Dramatic Company now moved to the Princess with a season of one week seasons. 'The School for Scandal' opened on March 31st.
Of Charles Warner the Argus said: "The demeanour and manners were as free and easy as those of a man about town in the smoking-room of his club. He jerked the other characters under the ribs, was as rollicking as a fast young fellow in a contemporary farce, and scarcely uttered a sentence without following it up by a laugh or a giggle." |
