Title The Prompter AND DRAMATIC CENSOR.
Abstract/Description On Saturday night last, not more than sixty or seventy persons attended, to see the Irish Valet & Charles the Second. All the performers were alive to their duty, and did all in their power to please. Mr and Mrs Cameron were both pleasing and interesting in the first piece. When Mr Meredith is compelled to gag in such pieces, he should be more decent in his Irish slang. What's frequently tolerated in-large Metropolitan Theatres at home, must, not be allowed among our small community, where young families are indulged at our Theatre. It is hoped for the improvement of their young minds that such was, and ought to be the real intention of the Drama and the Stage. Mrs Cameron was beautiful and interesting in the simple character of Mary, and acted up to nature in the richest style ; too much praise cannot be stowed upon her educated and lady-like manner, which combined with her extensive tact and knowledge of Theatricals - and the stage in general makes her paramount to all others in these Colonies. Her professional qualifications and her qualities as a private individual, entitle her to the consideration of the public generally, which will surely be evinced on her benefit night, for Monday next, when a rich treat may be depended on by those who never saw William Tell. From a Correspondent.
