The Tower of Nesle | Lord Darnley

We are happy to see the
houses so rapidly improving at this very elegant
and commodious place of amusement, and we
have no doubt the proprietors will ultimately
reap the harvest they so richly merit. Novelty
seems the standing order, and each night the
public are treated with some interesting drama,
a dance from our Australian Taglioni, and a lively
farce. The Tower of Nerle was splendidly got
up on Monday last, and attracted a very fashion-
able audience; the principal character was ad-
mirably sustained by Mr Lazar, who was well
supported by Messrs Cameron, Arabin, and Mrs
Cameron. One Hour, or the Carnival Ball, has
been also produced in a superior style—the ball
room scene at once realizing all the splendour of
a Venetian carnival, the stage being a complete
body of illumination. We understand Captain
Sturt, and several other influential families in-
tend patronising the Theatre on Monday next,
and we have no doubt the entertainments of the
evening will be well selected by the indefatigable
manager, Mr Lazar. We must not forget, how-
ever, to mention the orderly manner in which
the Theatre is conducted, reflecting the highest
credit on those concerned—we have visited the
principal theatres in England, and never witnes-
sed a greater degree of order preserved than in
the Queen's Theatre.—[Communicated.]
